Re: grid conversion

Hi Wendi,

     [I tried to respond to this much earlier, but our mailman email
      lists were down earlier. You may have gotten some individual
      messages from me earlier, but I have new information here.]

We don't have anything in PyNGL that can do what you're asking, but
check out the spherical harmonic NCL function "g2fsh":

    http://www.ncl.ucar.edu/Document/Functions/Built-in/g2fsh.shtml

and let me know if this might work for you. If so, then we can look
into implementing a version of this in PyNGL. However, we are trying
to be careful about not duplicating Python analysis efforts, and I
believe there may already be a couple of spherical harmonic Python
modules out there: the SciPy "sph_harm" module, and Jeff Whitaker's
"spharm" module:

http://www.cdc.noaa.gov/people/jeffrey.s.whitaker/python/spharm/doc/html/public/spharm.spharm-module.html

I'm not familiar with these modules, so I don't if they are a direct
implementation of the spherical harmonic routines, or if they do more
"high level" stuff like the suite of g2fsh, f2gsh, f2fsh, etc routines
in NCL.
