All the NCEP models on motherlode are now available through WCS. You can start
at this catalog and look for WCS access:
http://motherlode.ucar.edu:9080/thredds/idd/models.xml
this functionality will be moved over to 8080 probably later this month.
WCS docs are at:
http://motherlode.ucar.edu:8080/thredds/docs/WCS/index.html
The supported return formats are:
<supportedFormats>
<formats>GeoTIFF</formats>
<formats>GeoTIFFfloat</formats>
<formats>NetCDF3</formats>
</supportedFormats>
If you choose NetCDF3, you get back a netCDF file using CF-1.
LEAD is in the process of installing TDS so I dont think thats ready yet.

Hi,
For several groups in the GALEON project and also the NASA project with
GMU, I'd like to provide pointers to collections of datasets available
via WCS on our TDS. As I understand it, these datasets can be requested
in CF-netCDF even though they may be in other forms (GRIB, eg) on
disk. Let me know if I'm wrong on that. If it makes sense, I'd like
to include LEAD datasets in the list as long as the LEAD servers are
reasonably reliable.
Thanks for any pointers you can provide.
