That looks like a plot of gridded data that you could 
produce with spplot() in package sp.

This doesn't look like a grid, and it also doesn't look like 
projected, but it does look like spatial points in latlon 
and you can plot them with spplot().
If these spatial points are gridcell centers, you can define 
their representative area as a grid or as polygons (given 
the parameters of the projection and the numerical model) 
and you can plot those with spplot(), or you can interpolate 
these point data to a regular grid and then plot the grid 
(with spplot()).

Hope this helps,
