Hello R Users,

I have two data sets i) TOMS aerosol optical depth(AOD) and ii) TOMS
ozone(O3).

AOD data is on 1x1 grid and O3 data is on 5x5 grid.

First I want to read AOD and O3 as it is and then I want to regrid AOD on
5x5 grid as O3.

Reading is first problem.

FIRST PROBLEM READING AOD:

AOD data is in following format:

#########
Latitute: 89.5
167 0 0 0 0 0 182 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 200 0 0 0 0 0 0
0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 155 0 0 0 0 0 156  0 0 0 0 0 0
............
...........

Latitude: 88.5
.........
........

Lat.........
.........
.......
......
Latitude: -88.5
 180 0 0 0 0 0 182 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 500 0 0 0 0 0 0
0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 655 0 0 0 0 0 156  0 0 0 0 0 0
......
.....
######

After each latitude header there is 360 AOD values (1x1 grid). This is
monthly mean data. I have many years of data file.

So the first problem is how to read the data by omiting latitude header,
also data is written along row not along column ?



 SECOND PROBLEM READING O3:

O3 data is in following format:

ozone(72,12,324)

72: Longitude -177.5,-172.5,...,177.5'

12: Latitude -27.5,-22.5,...,27.5'

324: Month Jan79,Feb79,....,Dec05'
