The math overall looks correct. My guess is that your difference comes from 
km2deg(), which I'm assuming is converting your range to lat/lon degrees. This 
sounds like a rudimentary map projection, which is probably where you differ 
from WCT. Since range is a polar variable, I'm not sure that converting it to 
degrees is robust, since even the most simple conversion would likely differ 
for N/S degrees vs. E/W degrees. Either way, I don't think you're having any 
problems with the data I/O or netcdf. Good luck with the MatLab!
