[R] how do you interpolate a gaussian grid to a standard 2.5 degree grid?

Thanks for that! I've never seen that website before and it looks really useful! 
I think those functions look a lot more straight forward than any of the others 
I've seen today in my searching. 

I'll let you know if I get it sorted!
