Re: how to read binary file and covert to netcdf with new named variabe

Are you sure that "cfsSSTmonthly200904.gr" is
a flat binary file? The ".gr" extension is generally
attached to a Grib file

%> ncl_filedump cfsSSTmonthly200904.gr

To convert to netCDF

%> ncl_convert2nc cfsSSTmonthly200904.gr

Possibly, wgrib or wgrib2 has a -netcdf option that you can use.

Good luck
