Well then, I believe the template page help in GrADS website could use a little modification in explaining things more clearly, and more example, pertaining to the increment must be 1, and the flexibility and potential of %ch.<br>

Hi I have downloaded Meteorological Forcing dataset (Daily) from NCEP in order to run CLM (Community Land Model). Dataset include 7 different variables, for each year one file. I want to combine data in monthly files. for example in the file <a href="http://1985-12.nc/" target="_blank">1985-12.nc</a> i want to combine daily data of all the 7 variables. Using grads how can i do this. or if any one has Fortran script??<br>
Thank you very much.<br><br>**************************************<br>
