[gradsusr] gradsusr Digest, Vol 117, Issue 9

Wed Nov 20 09:50:44 EST 2019

Dear Stephan

I just checked your ctl file, there are couple of things missing
1. The dimension increment value
XDEF 1 LINEAR 27.00 *1*
YDEF 1 LINEAR -29.00 *1*
2. No ZDEF record
*ZDEF 1 linear 1 1*

3. Finally you don't need to assign the variable
*Precipitation=>tp 0 99 Daily Rainfall [mm/day]*

Just write
*tp 0 99 Daily Rainfall [mm/day]*
Hope this helps
Luis
