[MITgcm-support] CS64?128 grid files

[gael forget]

Alexandre,
the area variable is inside the ‘cube*bin’ files. The easiest way to unpack this information may be to use gcmfaces as shown below (see 
http://mitgcm.org/viewvc/*checkout*/MITgcm/MITgcm_contrib/gael/matlab_class/gcmfaces.pdf for details) and then create ‘Ra.bin’ as needed.
Gael

# in terminal window
wget http://mit.ecco-group.org/opendap/ecco_for_las/version_4/checkpoints/c66a_gcmfaces.tar
tar xvf c66a_gcmfaces.tar
matlab -nodesktop -nosplash

% in Matlab
p = genpath('gcmfaces/'); addpath(p);
gcmfaces_global; grid_load_native('cs_nostretch/cube_96/',6,0);
figure; qwckplot(mygrid.RAC);
