In order to do that I need to regrid all of the models to a common grid. Whenever I try to plot data from a regridded model there's a white line along the central longitude and the poles. I use the PlateCarree projection and it doesn't matter what I choose as the central longitude; there's always a white line there. The code I've included below produces 4 plots. The first one is of data that hasn't been interpolated and there's no white line: ![mpi_ok](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/33153877/141679217-9eb74a1e-b4da-458b-8e35-313066a2ab15.png) The next three are with interpolated data and with different central longitudes. They all have a white line at the central longitude. **central_longitude=0** ![mpi_bad_1](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/33153877/141679424-b976cffc-5601-453d-a44a-1edee6741a25.png) **central_longitude=33** ![mpi_bad_2](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/33153877/141679434-05f1b1f5-cfec-4d27-a293-9f582ee8e098.png) **central_longitude=164** ![mpi_bad_3](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/33153877/141679443-9673d8f1-d018-44dc-8975-18581f077f3d.png) **What you expected to happen**: No plot artefacts. **Minimal Complete Verifiable Example**: ```python import xarray as xr import matplotlib.pyplot as plt import cartopy.crs as ccrs cesm2_waccm = xr.open_dataset('pr_day_CESM2-WACCM_ssp245_r2i1p1f1_gn_20750101-20841231.nc') mpi = xr.open_dataset('pr_day_MPI-ESM1-2-LR_ssp245_r1i1p1f1_gn_20750101-20941231.nc') cesm2_waccm_subset = cesm2_waccm.sel(time=slice('2075-01-01', '2075-12-31')).mean(dim='time') mpi_subset = mpi.sel(time=slice('2075-01-01', '2075-12-31')).mean(dim='time') map_proj = ccrs.PlateCarree() # This works. plot = mpi_subset.pr.plot(subplot_kws={'projection': map_proj}) plot.axes.coastlines() plt.show() mpi_interp = mpi_subset.interp(lat=cesm2_waccm_subset['lat'], lon=cesm2_waccm_subset['lon']) # A randomly chosen set of central longitudes for plots. longitudes = [0, 33, 164] for lon in longitudes: map_proj = ccrs.PlateCarree(central_longitude=lon) # Has a white line at the central longitude. plot = mpi_interp.pr.plot(subplot_kws={'projection': map_proj}) plot.axes.coastlines() plt.show() ``` **Anything else we need to know?**: Here's the data I used for plotting: https://climate.uiogeo-apps.sigma2.no/ESGF/CMIP6/ScenarioMIP/NCAR/CESM2-WACCM/ssp245/r2i1p1f1/day/pr/gn/v20200224/pr_day_CESM2-WACCM_ssp245_r2i1p1f1_gn_20750101-20841231.nc https://climate.uiogeo-apps.sigma2.no/ESGF/CMIP6/ScenarioMIP/MPI-M/MPI-ESM1-2-LR/ssp245/r1i1p1f1/day/pr/gn/v20190710/pr_day_MPI-ESM1-2-LR_ssp245_r1i1p1f1_gn_20750101-20941231.nc **Environment**:
