Hello,

I'm afraid I am not familiar with NCL, but you can use the `nccopy` 
command-line utility to convert a netcdf4 file to a netcdf3 file.  This assumes 
that the data model (and data itself) contained within the nc4 file can be 
represented by a nc3 file, otherwise `nccopy` will report an error.  

I hope this helps!
