[gradsusr] gadsdf: SDF file has no discernable X coordinate

Noelia,

Can you attach the netcdf file?  Your units are kinda strange 
("defree_east" for both Longitude and Latitude).  Not sure if it is the 
problem, but you may want to change these to "degrees_north" and 
"degrees_east".  You could always make a data descriptor file, then use 
xdfopen.
