<div>You could convert the netcdf file to xyz text format, then treat it as vector points and interpolate a grid surface from these points with appropriate parameters. This should preserve the original values at the original xy locations and should take care
of the increasing spacing of the lat variable towards the poles. Regarding your use case of snow depth, a land mask could speed up the interpolation step, skipping oceans.<br>
