$ Major types of field and time flag
$   Field types  :  IC1   Ice thickness.
$                   IC5   Ice floe mean diameter.
$                   ICE   Ice concentrations.
$                   ISI   Icebergs and sea ice.
$                   LEV   Water levels.
$                   WND   Winds.
$                   WNS   Winds (including air-sea temp. dif.)
$                   CUR   Currents.
$                   DAT   Data for assimilation.
$                   TAU   Atmospheric momentum
$                   RHO   Air density
$
$   Format types :  AI    Transfer field 'as is'.
$                   LL    Field defined on rectilinear grid (in same
$                         coordinate system as model grid)
$                   F1    Field defined on curvilinear grid (in same
$                         coordinate system as model grid), coordinates
$                         of each grid point given in separate file.
$                   F2    Like F1, composite of 2 fields.
$
$        - Format type not used for field type 'DAT'.
$
$   Time flag    : If true, time is included in file.
$   Header flag  : If true, header is added to file.
$                  (necessary for reading, FALSE is used only for
$                   incremental generation of a data file.)
$
   'WND' 'LL' T T
$
$ Additional time input ---------------------------------------------- $
$ If time flag is .FALSE., give time of field in yyyymmdd hhmmss format.
$
$   19680606 053000
$
$ Additional input format type 'LL' ---------------------------------- $
$ Grid range (degr. or m) and number of points for axes, respectively.
$ Example for longitude-latitude grid.
$
$    -0.25 2.5  15  -0.25  2.5  4
     -180. 180. 720 -90. 90. 361
$
$ Additional input format type 'F1' or 'F2' -------------------------- $
$ Three or four additional input lines, to define the file(s) with
$ the grid information :
$ 1) Discrete size of input grid (NXI,NYI) and T/F flag identifying
$    closure in longitudes ("CLO"). Tripole input is not supported.
$ 2) Define type of file using the parameters FROM, IDLA, IDFM (see
$    input for grid preprocessor), and a format
$ 3) Unit number and (dummy) name of first file.
$ 4) Unit number and (dummy) name of second file (F2 only).
$
$ 15  3
$ 'UNIT' 3 1 '(.L.L.)'
$ 10 'll_file.1'
$ 10 'll_file.2'
$
$ Additional input for data ------------------------------------------ $
$ Dimension of data (0,1,2 for mean pars, 1D or 2D spectra), "record
$ length" for data, data value for missing data
$
$  0  4  -999.
$
$ Define data files -------------------------------------------------- $
$ The first input line identifies the file format with FROM, IDLA and
$ IDFM, the second (third) lines give the file unit number and name.
$
  'NAME' 3 1 '(..T..)' '(..F..)'
    21 'globalwinds.dat'
$  10 'data_file.1'
$ 10 'data_file.2'
$
$ If the above unit numbers are 10, data is read from this file
$ (no intermediate comment lines allowed),
$ This example is an ice concentration field.

$ First record gives number of data records, data are read as as
$ individual records of reals with record length as given above
