programming. NCL has a function named linint2_points which interpolates from
a rectilinear grid to an unstructured grid using bilinear interpolation based on
the four closest grid points to a particular (x, y) coordinate pair.</span></span>" However, I don't know how reply to the part of discussing about different spatial resolution.
