> Hi,
> 
> I have a dataset (attached) in grib format. It is the output from the climate 
> model EC-Earth, that is to say the atmospheric model IFS from ECMWF.
> I’m having trouble opening this grib file with either Panoply, netcdf-java 
> tools UI, or IDV. The failure returns an error stating that a dimension has a 
> value of -9999.
> Conversion of this file to netcdf using CDO works flawlessly, and CDO can 
> even read the grib file without any trouble. I’ve consulted with the 
> developer of Panoply who
> also failed to solve the issue and referred me to to support-netcdf-java.
