[RegCNET] something about SIGMAtoP of the latest r egcm3

[jwzhou66]

Hello,everyone!
    I have a question about the SIGMAtoP of  the latest regcm3(2006).
    After the simulating by the regcm3,I do SIGMAtoP in  output directory,and copy pdef,xdef,ydef,tdef from ATM.********.ctl file,but while displaying  the PLEV_VAR results in 
GrADS,the result is not correct and illogical.I also display the viriable in ATM.********.ctl in GrADS,it seems reasonable,the following  is what I find:
 ga-> open PLEV_VAR.ctl
Scanning description file:  PLEV_VAR.ctl
Data file PLEV_VAR is open as file 1
LON set to 33.9 172.834
LAT set to -3.68 61.7326

ga-> set t 1 19

and I also do the SIGMAtoP for ICBC in Input directory,its results is right.I ever used the regcm3 of 2005and find no problem in SIGMAtoP of output,so I wondered!
Please tell me !
At last,can anyone give me the source of regcm3 in 2005,thank you !
  Hope for you reply!
