[gradsusr] gradsusr Digest, Vol 117, Issue 9

Wed Nov 20 09:08:31 EST 2019

The .ctl file I wrote looks as follows:
DSET ^igridera5_prcp_daily_af_0027.00_-29.00_n.nc
DTYPE netcdf
TITLE era5_prcp_daily_af
UNDEF -9999.
XDEF 1 LINEAR 1 1 
YDEF 1 LINEAR 1 1 
TDEF 14975 LINEAR 1JAN1979 1DY
VARS 1
Precipitation=>tp 0 99 Daily Rainfall [mm/day]
ENDVARS

I also tried
XDEF 1 LINEAR 27.00 
YDEF 1 LINEAR -29.00
