Hi Lin

%> ncl_filedump -v Feature_Optical_Depth_532
CAL_LID_L2_05kmALay-Prov-V2-01.2007-05-02T01-15-05ZD.hdf | less

Yields ...

[SNIP]
      float Feature_Optical_Depth_532 ( fakeDim113, fakeDim114 )
         units : N/A
         format : Float_32
         valid_range : 0.0...5.0
         hdf_name : Feature_Optical_Depth_532
[SNIP]
Variables:
 
     Feature_Optical_Depth_532:
 
  -9999. -9999. -9999. -9999. -9999. -9999.
  -9999. -9999. 0.3222E-01 -9999. -9999. -9999.
  -9999. -9999. -9999. -9999. -9999. -9999.
[SNIP]

NCL reads the variable just fine.

It looks like the _FillValue is -9999.

      f = addfile (....)
      x = f->Feature_Optical_Depth_532
      x@_FillValue = -9999.

Good luck
