Hi Han:
Ok, let me understand what you have before I comment on whether it fits in:
netcdf OS_NTAS-2009_T_R {
dimensions:
time = UNLIMITED ; // (3033 currently)
depth = 5 ;
latitude = 1 ;
longitude = 1 ;
variables:
float time(time) ;
time:axis = "T" ;
float depth(depth) ;
depth:axis = "Z" ;
float latitude(latitude) ;
latitude:axis = "Y" ;
float longitude(longitude) ;
longitude:axis = "X" ;
float STMP(time, depth,latitude,longitude) ;
STMP:standard_name = "sea_water_temperature" ;
short INST_SN(depth) ;
INST_SN:long_name = "instrument_serial_number" ;
It looks like you have a single moored buoy in this file.
The 1D lat, lon I think are clearer as scalars :
float latitude ;
latitude:axis = "Y" ;
float longitude ;
longitude:axis = "X" ;
float time(time) ;
time:axis = "T" ;
float depth(depth) ;
depth:axis = "Z" ;
float STMP(time, depth) ;
STMP:standard_name = "sea_water_temperature" ;
short INST_SN(depth) ;
INST_SN:long_name = "instrument_serial_number" ;
So it appears that you have the same depth coordinate for each measurement, and
some data which is independent of the time, but z dependent. Am I missing
anything?
