[gradsusr] any help/thoughts?

[Jennifer Adams]

Take a look at the docs for the tmave() function. You may not want averaging over your time series, but it might be helpful in setting up a mask to apply to your longer time series to get rid of periods you are not interested in. You could create an ascii file with 0's and 1's, convert to netcdf with ncgen, and apply (multiply or whatever) that mask to your whole time series.
