Not easily. You'd have to create a new domain with x,y,p and then substitute the samples from each FlatField into the range of the new field with the new domain. > Do you know of model data with wind and temprature fields with good > resolution over Chna? I think the best resolution we have is the 0.5 degree Global Forecast System (GFS) grids that are in the IDV catalog under: Model Data Additional IDD Model Data (requires IDV 1.3b1 or higher) Global Forecast System Model NCEP GFS Global 0.5 degree It has vertical pressure levels with 50 hPa spacing.
