==Converting(interpolating) cubed-sphere data to Lat-Lon data==
For some purposes it will be impractical to adapt existing analysis tools to directly work with MERRA cubed-sphere products.  In such cases, users will need to build an executable that can interpolate cubed-sphere data to a set of predefined lat-lon resolutions.  (Note that special care must be taken for vector data, e.g., (u,v).)
The building requirements and instruction can be found here  https://geos5.org/wiki/index.php?title=Building_Baselibs . The executable program cube2laton can be used to convert (or interpolate) the data
Converting data:
%  cube2latlon <in-file> <out-file> <target-resolution>
E.g.,
% cube2latlon  merra.nc  latlon.nc  4x5
