Hi Diana,

Bill Schfetic's response is correct.:  ESMF is the way to go.

ESMF_{16, 20} are two examples.
---
Note that the regridding requires the source and destination lat/lon grid
values.
Map projection information is not used.
---
If you can make the source file and the  destination grid coordinates
available [drop box, ftp, ...] , I could take a look.

ftp ftp.cgd.ucar.edu

your_email
cd incoming
put SOURCE_FILE
quit


Stay Healthy!
