Hi Brian,<div><br></div><div>have a look at how the grads-binary files are organized. </div><div><a href="http://grads.iges.org/grads/gadoc/aboutgriddeddata.html">http://grads.iges.org/grads/gadoc/aboutgriddeddata.html</a></div>
<div><br></div><div><a href="http://grads.iges.org/grads/gadoc/aboutgriddeddata.html"></a>The loop goes first over the x, y,z,VARS, and then time. So, you have to order your data in the right order:</div><div><br></div><div>
1.level, 1.time</div><div>1.level, 2.time</div><div>...</div><div>1.level, last time</div><div>2.level, 1.time</div><div>2.level, 2.time </div><div>...</div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div>It seems to me more natural to use the z-coordinate for the sub-surface levels, and the time axis for the time, but I guess you have some plans with your setup.</div>
