[ncl-talk] Spline interpolation

In my opinion, spline interpolation would not be good for "interpolating
the coarse resolution 2-D rectilinear grids into the finer resolution". It
would be possible to get some 'over/under' estimates at 'between' grid
points.

I suggest simple bilinear interpolation:

As I'm sure you know, a coarse grid interpolated to a finer resolution does
not provide any extra information.

Good Luck
