Reorganizing two arrays into one

All,

I have converted ERA Interim monthly data into seasonal data, DJF and JJA,
and get my variable:

Variable: MSL_season
Type: float
Total Size: 21285120 bytes
            5321280 values
Number of Dimensions: 4
Dimensions and sizes: [season | 2] x [initial_time0_hours | 23] x [g0_lat_1
| 241] x [g0_lon_2 | 480]
Coordinates:
            season: [DJF..JJA]
            initial_time0_hours: [1569072..1761936]
            g0_lat_1: [90..-90]
            g0_lon_2: [ 0..359.25]
Number Of Attributes: 10
  center : European Center for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts (RSMC)
  long_name : Seasonal Means: Mean sea level pressure
  units : Pa
  _FillValue : 1e+20
  level_indicator : 1
  gds_grid_type : 0
  parameter_table_version : 128
  parameter_number : 151
  forecast_time : 0
  forecast_time_units : hours
(0) nMSL_season=2
(1) nMSL_season=23
(2) nMSL_season=241
(3) nMSL_season=480

I would like to be able to have this data in a single array such that the
seasons, DJF and JJA, are in relative order (i.e. DJF 1979, JJA 1979, DJF
1979-1980, JJA 1980, etc.):

MSL_SEASON= new((/1,46,241,480/),"float")

MSL_SEASON!0="season"
MSL_SEASON!1="time"
MSL_SEASON!2="lat"
MSL_SEASON!3="lon"

MSL_SEASON&season = season
MSL_SEASON&time = time
MSL_SEASON&lat = lat
MSL_SEASON&lon = lon

Seems to me like a simple task, but I have been struggling with it for a
while now. I'm not sure whether a loop may be involved. I am not sure of
the correct syntax regarding coordinate subscripting, either.

Any help would greatly be appreciated.
