This is demonstrated in the figures below for the LSM and SST from ERA-Interim interpolated to a 0.75x0.75 regular lat-lon grid. The figure on the left shows the results using EMOSLIB with the default (bilinear) interpolation method and that on the right those using a nearest neighbour method.
ERA Interim (N128) interpolated with EMOSLIB to a 0.75x0.75 regular lat-lon grid using the default interpolation method (bilinear) and land-sea mask processing
Globally, in total, there are:

Repeating the interpolation with MIR produces the following results, again with the figure on the left showing the results with the default (linear) interpolation method and that on the right those using a nearest neighbour method.
