VCOORD
VCOORD specifies the vertical coordinate system of the levels to
process. Currently, there are four coordinates:
NONE = surface data only
PRES = pressure
THTA = theta (isentropic)
HGHT = height
A list or range of levels will be based on the vertical coordinate
type, with the exception of MAN or VAS which always refer to a
pressure coordinate system.
Note that data are ignored within superadiabatic layers found working
upwards from the surface when interpolations are performed to
isentropic coordinates.
