Subject: [ECOLOG-L] Working with netCDF files in R
Date: Thu, 14 Sep 2017 16:45:48 -0400

Hi all,

I'm new to the netCDF file format, but I need to rapidly
familiarize myself.
In attempting to manipulate IOOS data (specifically,
http://oos.soest.hawaii.edu/thredds/ncss/hioos/roms_assim
/hiog/ROMS_Oahu_Regional_Ocean_Model_Assimilation_best.nc
d/dataset.html
) in R, I've found that online resources are helpful only
to a point, as
netCDF files are variable- one snippet of code isn't very
transferable. 

Since I can't see the data in a netCDF file like I could
in a table, I'm not
sure how to best learn how to work with these files in R.
I need to analyze
years of data across a swath of area, so pulling one set
of coordinates at a
time is not efficient. Does anyone have advice on how to
transform a netCDF
file into a TIFF or csv? Or has anyone pulled IOOS data
in the past?

Thanks for your advice!
