Hello, I have been trying to read in a variable from a netCDF file. It has -9999 as a "missing value". When I read in the file using open.ncdf, the missing values are set to 1e+30 (probably the default in R). I tried different approaches; using the syntax from the ncdf documentation and from a UCAR website I found (http://www.image.ucar.edu/GSP/Software/Netcdf/) with no luck. the set.missval function also fails to yield results. I then tried re-setting the missing value for the file in NCL and then reading it in again, with the same result. Has anybody here used the package before? If yes, can you post a sample of the script you used? Thanks much, Advait -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/help-with-ncdf-package-tp25790201p25790201.html Sent from the R help mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
