| 22 | Example of FFI 3010. |
|---|
| 23 | This example illustrating NASA Ames file format index 3010 is entirely fictitious. |
|---|
| 24 | Data have been made up for the purpose of illustrating the use of the format. They |
|---|
| 25 | consist in an imaginary calculated temperature distribution over a latitude-altitude |
|---|
| 26 | grid at the two solstices (21 June and 21 December). The grid is defined in lines 8, |
|---|
| 27 | 9, 11 and 12. Latitude ranges from -90 to +90 degrees by intervals of 30 degrees. |
|---|
| 28 | Altitude ranges from 50 to 20 km by negative increments of 10 km. |
|---|
| 29 | The day number is counted from 1st of January = Day One. |
|---|
| 30 | The year of the first date on line 7 (1980) has no particular meaning. |

| 32 | The files included in this data set illustrate each of the 9 NASA Ames file format |
|---|
| 33 | indices (FFI). A detailed description of the NASA Ames format can be found on the Web |
