Users may experience problems reading CERES (specifically, FLASHFLUX) data
files with MATLAB. The problem with reading CERES data files is a bug in
MATLAB R2007b that has been fixed in R2008a. This issue, which arises only
with certain HDF files, is related to a bug in the HDFREAD function that
cannot read a 'Vdata' dataset that is contained in a 'Vgroup'.
