Hi Veera,
I think you havn't got any response yet on your OpenDX
netCDF problem. I have only taken a quick look at the file
pe_PB_frc_nrg_mod.nc on your web site.
When I import it using the OpenDX importer I get the response
attached. I think that your major problem is that you specify the
variables themselves as being the positions component.
time:positions = "time" ;
buoy_avg:positions = "buoy_avg" ;
ke_extavg:positions = "ke_extavg" ;
and so on ...
Also, time is specified as a field, I don't think that is correct either.
time:field = "time, scalar, series" ;
Hope this can be of some help to you. If I find some spare time I'll see if
I can dive more deeply into your problems.

Object Description:
Input object is a Group which contains 17 members.
member 0 is named Tmask
member 1 is named Vmask
member 2 is named time
member 3 is named average buoyancy work
member 4 is named internal KE averages
...
member 12 is named average surface tracer
member 13 is named average tracer
member 14 is named T_convection
member 15 is named T_variance
Begin Execution
member 16 is named average velocity
The group contains members of different object types
Input is not ready to be rendered because 60 Field(s) in the Input object have
bad positions (less than 1D or greater than 3D).
If > 3D, use the `Slice' module or `Mark' and `Compute' to reduce them to 3D or
less.
