UCAR NetCDF mail group,
I am working on acquiring small amounts of GFS, NAM and RUC data from
nomads.ncdc.noaa.gov. As a test I am trying to collect the Temperature
variable for a particular point. I can easily acquire this data via my web
browser with this link.
http://nomads.ncdc.noaa.gov/thredds/dodsC/ruc13/201110/20111018/ruc2_130_20111018_1300_000.grb2.asc?Temperature[0][2][100][300]
I would like to collect this variable via the netcdf java library. However I
can't seem to find documentation on the correct use of the dimensions variables
in the readSection or readArrays methods of the DODSNetcdfFile. Could anyone
please direct me to documentation for these? I have found that even when I
specifiy dimenions for a variable it still downloads the complete grid and
takes much longer than the link above.
Here is an example of what I am trying to do.

ncfile = new DODSNetcdfFile( modelFile );
