Example of FFI 2010 (a).
This example illustrating NASA Ames file format index 2010 is based on results
from Murgatroyd (1969) as displayed in Brasseur and Solomon, Aeronomy of the
Middle Atmosphere, Reidel, 1984 (p.36). It is representative of the mean zonal
wind distribution in the winter hemisphere. The first date on line 7 (1st of
January 1969) is fictitious. Note that the latitude grid is irregular in this
example, which is reflected by the fact that DX1 = 0 (see line 8).

Example of FFI 2010 (b).
This example illustrating NASA Ames file format index 2010 is based on results
from Murgatroyd (1969) as displayed in Brasseur and Solomon, Aeronomy of the
Middle Atmosphere, Reidel, 1984 (p.36). It is representative of the mean zonal
wind distribution in the winter hemisphere as a function of latitude and height.
The first date on line 7 (1st of January 1969) is fictitious.
From line 10 (NXDEF = 1) we know that the latitude points are defined by
X(i) = X(1) + (i-1)DX1 for i = 1, ..., NX
with X(1) = 0 deg (line 11), DX1 = 10 deg (line 8) and NX = 9 (line 9).

Note that this example is identical to Example 2010 (b) but for the absence of
