[gradsusr] netcdf file opening problem

[Jeff Duda]

Grads variable names have requirements. I believe those are a limit of 16
characters, and there can be only alphanumeric characters in the name. In a
control file, you can rename a netcdf array to meet the grads variable name
requirements using the => syntax. For example:

Atmospheric_Water_Vapor_Mean=>meanwvap

See http://www.iges.org/grads/gadoc/descriptorfile.html#VARS for complete
details.
