Hi John,
I almost finish the new NetCDF files.
Can you please have a look at head.txt before I send them to our ftp server.
I can send you one NetCDF file if you need.
Thank you!

Hi Richard, Chunying:
Ken Richards at environcorp is trying to read the netcdf files at
ftp://eclipse.ncdc.noaa.gov/pub/OI-daily-v2/NetCDF/2004/AVHRR-AMSR
and having trouble. in looking at the file global attributes:
:title = "Daily-OI-V2, final, Data (Ship, Buoy, AMSR-E, AVHRR, GSFC-ice)";
:History = "Version 1.0";
:creation_date = "2008-10-16";
:Description = "Reynolds, et al.(2007) Daily High-resolution Blended Analyses.
Available at
ftp://eclipse.ncdc.noaa.gov/pub/OI-daily/daily-sst.pdf Climatology is based on
1971-2000 OI.v2 SST,
Satellite data: AMSR Navy NOAA17 NOAA18 AVHRR, Ice data: GSFC ice";
:Source = "NOAA/National Climatic Data Center";
:Contact = "Dick Reynolds, email: address@hidden & Chunying Liu, email:
address@hidden";
:netcdf_Convention = "COARDS";
The problem is that
:netcdf_Convention = "COARDS";
should be
:Conventions = "COARDS";
is it possible for you to change this? thanks.
