Dear Gary Strand,
I'm getting an error from Ferret 6.7 that doesn't occur when using
Ferret 6.64. This is a straightforward netCDF file that happens to
have a field defined on a curvilinear grid that meets CMIP5
requirements.
Have you tried ferret 6.7.2? There were relevant changes in 6.7,
6.7.1: improvements in recognizing axes names and dealing with
dimensions. These changes initially broke some things for us with
specific variables in WRF curvilinear files, very similar to what
you're seeing. Since ferret 6.7.2, this works "as expected" for us,
again.
Could you post an ncdump -h of your file? I'd like to see the
attributes of the LEV dimension / variable.
Kind regards,
Hein Zelle
