Hi Heather,

As a first step, you might check on upgrading from ArcGIS 9.0 to
ArcGIS 9.2, which supports netCDF.  ESRI ArcGIS version 9.2 and later
support accessing netCDF time-based and multidimensional data that
follows CF or COARDS conventions for associating spatial locations
with data. A selected slice of netCDF data may be displayed in ArcGIS
as a raster layer, feature layer, or table. You can also drag a netCDF
file from Windows Explorer and drop it in an ESRI application such as
ArcMap.  Here's a link that provides more information:

http://webhelp.esri.com/arcgisdesktop/9.2/index.cfm?TopicName=About_netCDF_data

If for some reason you can't upgrade to ArcGIS 9.2, others at NCAR
have used scripts and intermediate formats to get particular netCDF
datasets into ArcGIS before ESRI software supported netCDF.  This site
has more information and may lead to contacts:
