Hi All,
I have a grib file with the following attributes. NCL sees it as two time
coordinates with lengths 2 and 3, while conversion to netcdf using cdo
produces a single time axis of length 5. It looks like NCL collects the 2
months with 30 days as one coordinate and the remaining 3 months with 31
days as another.
This makes me wonder why there is such difference and which way of reading
is likely to give me the right answer. Any suggestions on how to read the
data as one single time coordinate are most welcome.
Cheers,
Prince
