Stephane,

axis="T" is correct. I'm guessing, the units on your time coordinate aren't recognized by udunits.

Hi All,
I am trying to have our netCDF files comply to CF-1.0 convention.
CF-Convention compliance checker for NetCDF format (http://*titania.badc.rl.ac.uk/cgi-bin/cf-checker.pl) returns the following error when checking my netCDF file's "time" variable: ERROR (4): axis attribute inconsistent with coordinate type as deduced from units and/or positive. File http://*www.*oifii.org/do-org/dod/2010july23_time-axis-attribute-inconsistent-with-coordinate-type-as-deduced-from-units-and-or-positive.jpg shows how UCAR's NetCDF 4.2 Tool UI see's my netCDF file (http://*www.*oifii.org/imt/dai/crcm/MRCC.4.2.0_amno_adj_alsi_ps_196012_r(cf-1-4).nc <http://*www.*oifii.org/imt/dai/crcm/MRCC.4.2.0_amno_adj_alsi_ps_196012_r%28cf-1-4%29.nc>). Do I get this error because the "axis" attribute of my "time" variable is set to "t" instead of "time"?
