So the solution is to use ncml to modify the original files and another ncml to 
aggregate them together to 
form a time coordinate.

first step:  add <attribute name="coordinates" value="latitude longitude" /> to 
one of the variable with (y,x)

second step: see the attached ncml, I use the mean_feature_time as the time 
coordinate variable, you can change it to another time variable.
and only aggregate brightness_temperature_XXmicron variables and you expand to 
others too.
