BUFR routines

• Modify bucomp to handle new subtypes.

Gribex routines

• Change EMOS version to 000040.
• GRIBEX version number changed to 13.022.
• Modify calculation of exponent and mantissa for GRIB floating point values (eg. reference value).
• Add SWHP (229) and MWPP (232) to local table 2 version 131 (probabilities).
• Add ECMWF ocean data type (=192) with new GRIB section 2 definition; also add MARS types FR/AR (70/71).
• Handle GRIB section 2 encoding/decoding in separate subroutines.
• Check parameter number and local table 2 number against values in local definitions files. (Removed 1999/03/29).

Pseudo-code handling

• correct codeps to accept YY or YYYY year format

Interpolation software

• Allow interpolation of parameter 250 (2D spectra) for regular lat/long areas (eg Mediterranean).
• Remove optimisation for routine jjset99 on HP (shared library problem).
• Fix calculation whether output field is global; allow wrapround and full grid with no wrapround (w251idx).
• Add facility to read reduced gaussian grid definition from file.
• Add tolerance for GRIB-rounded grid intervals in grid-to-grid interpolation when checking that new area is subset of old.
• Add routine to interpolation from lat/lon GRIB to new lat/lon GRIB by selecting grid points.
