Workspace Method AtmRawRead

Description

Reads atmospheric data from a scenario.

An atmospheric scenario includes the following data for each
position (pressure, latitude, longitude) in the atmosphere:
   1. temperature field
   2. the corresponding altitude field
   3. vmr fields for the gaseous species
The data is stored in different files. This methods reads all
files and creates the variables t_field_raw, z_field_raw and
vmr_field_raw.

Files in a scenarios should be named matching the pattern of:
tropical.H2O.xml

The files can be anywhere, but they must be all in the same
directory, selected by 'basename'. The files are chosen by the
species name. If you have more than one tag group for the same
species, the same profile will be used.
