[ncl-talk] TIMED/SABER NASA Data

[Verena Lili]

Dear NCL,

I'd like to extract the kinetic temperature variable for each netcdf file
provided by TIMED/SABER team. Unfortunately, they only have an IDL
converter tool (subroutine) to regrid the netcdf output into the standard
grid and height (km), So,, is there any solution to convert these data
using ncl?

Thank you.

The example data is here:
