The utility program "ncdump" can show you what is really in the file, and 
whether
it matches the matlab output or the output from your f90 program.  I can't tell,
just looking at your program, whether there is an error reading the 
missing_value
attributes, but they are all printed as "0.10000E+01" (1.0), which looks wrong.

It looks to me like your statement

        call check(nf90_get_att(ncid=ncid,varid=nf90_global, 
name=attrname,values=attrval_nu))

should instead be

        call check(nf90_get_att(ncid=ncid,varid=i, 
name=attrname,values=attrval_nu))
