How it works:
The "target_grid" variable is set to the desired LATxLON spacing, in degrees. For example, "1x1.25" will set a target grid with resolution of 1 degrees latitude and 1.25 degrees longitude. A default of 2.5x2.5 degrees is set in the mean climate parser.
There is a slight change in how the 2.5x2.5 degree case is handled from what is currently in PMP v3.1.1. The starting latitude is -90+0.5*latitude_resolution, versus -88.875. This was tested using the baseline case from the mean climate demo notebook, and I found that the metrics are identical to the hundreths or thousandths place.
