<div dir="ltr"><div><div>Hi,<br><br></div>It sounds like that one file in particular, <span style="font-variant-ligatures:no-common-ligatures">"<a href="http://pre_199501_mondat.nc" target="_blank">pre_199501_mondat.nc</a>", is corrupt. I note that it is not the same file as the single file instance that you cited, and I *think* NCL would have ingested all the files from 1901 up to the 199501 before throwing the error. Are you able to open the file with the ncl_filedump command, or any of the NCO/CDO operators? If you want to send it to our ftp site, I'll take a look at it (instructions below).<br><br></span></div><span style="font-variant-ligatures:no-common-ligatures">Rick<br></span><div><span style="font-variant-ligatures:no-common-ligatures"><br></span><br><b>You can ftp larger datasets and files to:</b>
