Hi,
   I am trying to make a descriptor file for NCEP's daily data. I am
not sure of the correct choice of D_CALTYPE that is to be used in
BACKGROUND_RECORD. I have used both 'noleap' and 'gregorian' but the
29th of February is not shown for the leap years although the
corresponding dataset has it. Could someone advise?

Thanks.
