Dealing with an irregularly spaced netCDF grid...?

Hey All,

I have a netCDF grid that has latitudes at irregular intervals. So when I grid image it, i get the warning that it's using a constant step size. It makes a plot, but has the latitudes in the wrong place (see attached file, 40 south is not really below New Zealand!).

I tried grid2xyz thinking it would write out the exact (X,Y) values from the netCDF file (then re-grid), but those are written with constant spacing as well.

What can i do to deal with that within GMT? Am  I missing something obvious?

Suppose I'd need to ncdump it to a formatted text file somehow, then re-grid in GMT. But not sure how to do that.

I can get the file to plot the right way in MATLAB, but I wanted to give the data the GMT 'look' that I love!

Thanks...
