DODS download for NOAA NCEP EMC CMB GLOBAL Reyn_SmithOIv2 climatology c6190 sst

Accessing data using your copy of ferret

COARDS-compliant programs would prefer months since 0000-01-01. Click here to change the units accordingly. DODS allows one to give a application a url and have it directly download data. To read this data into ferret use

set data "http://maproom.meteorwanda.gov.rw/SOURCES/.NOAA/.NCEP/.EMC/.CMB/.GLOBAL/.Reyn_SmithOIv2/.climatology/.c6190/sst/ngridtable/dods"

If ferret refuses to read the file, saying

** netCDF error: Invalid Argument
 is this a CDF file ?

it is quite possible that you can use set data after you download the netcdf file.

If you have questions, comments, or problems please use the help@iri link. This page will evolve as we learn more about how Ferret handles data downloads, and your help pointing out problems is much appreciated.

There is a bug in ferret which is corrected in release 6.0 (see notes about "nonstandard calendar axes"). Please upgrade if you are using monthly data.
