conversion between ieeer8 and netcdf

[xianbiaokang@163_com]

Hello,    Can  Anyone kindly give me some advices about how to read ieeer8 formatted data with fortran or view it directly with some graphic software ?  Any subroutines or tools available to help completing the conversion between ieeer8 and netcdf ?

Hello.You can open a ieeer8 file with this piece of matlab code: clear all; fid = fopen('ts_PHC2_jan_ic_gx3v7_20100107.ieeer8');TS = fread(fid,'double'); %% read temperature and salinity from this file
fclose(fid); %%% Temperature variable is 100x116x60
%%% Salinity variable is also 100x116x60
 TS=swapbytes(TS);
TS1=reshape(TS,[100,116,120]); Temp = TS1(:,:,1:60);Salt = TS1(:,:,61:120);
imagesc(Temp(:,:,1))  %shows temperature on first level
imagesc(Salt(:,:,1)) %shows salinity on the first level

That's it. I do not know yet how to transform ieeer8 directly to netcdf, but I'll try to do it soon. Neither how to transform the data into a regular grid. If someone could help, it will be very appreciated!
