Below is the structure of the file i am trying to convert in pressure
levels. It 18 sigma levels and I want to have at standard pressure levels :
1000 925 850 800 700 600 500 300 200 250 200 150 100

netcdf atm99 {
dimensions:
lon = 190 ;
lat = 106 ;
lev = 18 ;
time = UNLIMITED ; // (124 currently)
variables:
double lon(lon) ;
lon:long_name = "longitude" ;
lon:units = "degrees_east" ;
lon:standard_name = "longitude" ;
lon:axis = "X" ;
double lat(lat) ;
lat:long_name = "latitude" ;
lat:units = "degrees_north" ;
lat:standard_name = "latitude" ;
lat:axis = "Y" ;
double lev(lev) ;
lev:long_name = "generic" ;
lev:units = "level" ;
lev:axis = "Z" ;
double time(time) ;
time:units = "hours since 1999-01-01 06:00:00" ;
time:calendar = "standard" ;
float u(time, lev, lat, lon) ;
u:long_name = "westerly wind (m/s)" ;
u:_FillValue = -1.e+34f ;
float v(time, lev, lat, lon) ;
v:long_name = "southerly wind (m/s)" ;
v:_FillValue = -1.e+34f ;
float w(time, lev, lat, lon) ;
w:long_name = "omega (hPa/s) p-velocity" ;
w:_FillValue = -1.e+34f ;
float t(time, lev, lat, lon) ;
t:long_name = "air temperature (degree)" ;
t:_FillValue = -1.e+34f ;
