helpCreate a field with lower time resolution
First fill missing data: ignore, climatology, trend, persistence.
Then apply: -day running mean with direction
Then apply new time scale:
New variable: of OLR
Minimum: % valid data
Threshold:
helpCreate a field with lower spatial resolution
Average over blocks of longitude and latitude grid cells
getfieldtype: please ask the administrator to add "olr" to the lists in getfieldtype
