[ncl-talk] addfiles error in ncl

[Debasish Hazra]

Hi,

 I am trying to read  bunch of files in ncl and at first it gave " ncl
fatal:incorrect size for list filevar subselection" error. Followed by ncl
examples I tried something like this :

 fname = systemfunc("ls -l ../../MODIS/Monthly/AOD/*.nc | awk '{print $5}'
")
       fsz = toint(fname)
       m = addfiles(fsz,"r")
       ListSetType (m, "join")

           print(fsz)
           printVarSummary(fsz)

         mod_aod = m[:]->MYD08_M3_051_Optical_Depth_Land_And_Ocean_Mean_Mean

which print outs and gave error as :

 Variable: fsz

fatal:No valid instance of variable
MYD08_M3_051_Optical_Depth_Land_And_Ocean_Mean_Mean found in file list

However, ncl_filedump of this files show :
g4.subsetted.MYD08_M3_051_Optical_Depth_Land_And_Ocean_Mean_Mean.20130701.180W_90S_180E_90N.nc

shows
title : MYD08_M3_051_Optical_Depth_Land_And_Ocean_Mean_Mean
(180W_90S_180E_90N)
   dimensions:
      time = 1  // unlimited
      lat = 180
      lon = 360
   variables:
      float MYD08_M3_051_Optical_Depth_Land_And_Ocean_Mean_Mean ( time,
lat, lon )

Any help why this one is not working. Thanks.

Attached is the one of the many identical files I was trying to work on.
