! abstract: read SST analysis (GRIB format) and save it as expanded and transposed array
!
!     Subroutine rdgrbsst must be compiled with the NCEP W3 library
!     and the BACIO library.

!
! program history log:
!   2003-04-04  xu li, bert katz
!   2005-04-18  treadon - fill southern and northern rows of sst grid
!                         with mean of adjacent row.  This treatment is
!                         consistent with rdgesfc.f90 and rdgesig.f90
!
!   input argument list:
!     file_sst - file name of GRIB SST file
!     mlat_sst,mlon_sst
!
!   argument list defined by this reading:
!     sst_an - SST field (for 0.5 x 0.5 resolution)
!             sst_an(1,1)     is at 90.00 deg. S,  0.25 deg. W (-90.00,-0.25)
!             sst_an(1,2)     is at 90.00 deg. S,  0.25 deg. E (-90.00,+0.25)
!             sst_an(2,1)     is at 89.75 deg. S,  0.25 deg. W (-89.75,-0.25)
!             sst_an(2,2)     is at 89.75 deg. S,  0.25 deg. E (-89.75,+0.25)
!             sst_an(361,721) is at 89.75 deg. N,  0.25 deg. W (+89.75,359.75)
!             sst_an(361,722) is at 89.75 deg. N,  0.25 deg. E (+89.75,360.25)
!             sst_an(362,721) is at 90.00 deg. N,  0.25 deg. W (+90.00,359.75)
!             sst_an(362,722) is at 90.00 deg. N,  0.25 deg. E (+90.00,360.25)
!   Note: (1) The data is stored from north to south originally in GRIB format,
!             but is stored from south to north with this reading routine
!         (2) Two poles are added and their values are extrapolated in meridional direction
!         (3) Two ends are added and their values (periodic) in zonal direction
!         (4) The output (sst_an) dimension is changed as opposite order, e.g. (for 0.5 x 0.5)
!             (722,362) ==> (362, 722)
!     nlat_sst  - latitudinal dimension of SST
!     nlon_sst  - longitudinal dimension of SST
!     xsst0 - latitude of origin
!     ysst0 - longitude of origin
!     dres  - lat/lon increment
