Move the gfortran include option to before the f90 file name, as in:

  gfortran -I /usr/local/netcdf_412_gfortran/include read_smart.f90 -L 
/usr/local/netcdf_412_gfortran/lib -lnetcdff -lnetcdf

so the compiler knows where to look for the netcdf.mod file referenced
in the f90 "use netcdf" statement in your read_smart.f90 program.

You can also use the "nc-config" command to see what Fortran flags are needed 
on your systems, as in

  nc-config --fflags

and 

  nc-config --flibs

where nc-config is a command installed in the netcdf bin/ directory, along with 
ncdump, ncgen, and nccopy 
utilities.
