The problem is twofold: - the netCDF file has the vertical coordinate as level which are pressure levels every 50 mb. Absolute vorticity only comes in on 5 levels (1000, 850, 700, 500, 250). - there is only data for 1000 mb in these files. From a client perspective, I would like to get a grid that only lists the levels that there is data for (or supposed to be). Can the CDL be changed to have a vertical coordinate for absvor which is different from level? For the second problem, there appears to be a decoding issue. If I use the grib1 files in the motherlode thredds catalog, I get the correct vertical dimension (5 levels). Can one of you look into this issue?problem was pqact entry was wrong for the netCDF file, ie for raw grib HRS ^[YZ].(Q)... KWB. for netCDF HRS ^Y.(Q)... KWB. fixed on motherlode robb...As discussed in the user comm meeting, these types of issues get blamed on the IDV since we are the window to the data repository. Thanks. Don
