<div dir="ltr">Which CF convention version does NCL primarily use? <div><br></div><div>Ken Knapp (CC'd) is developing a new version of IBTrACS (beta version attached) and says it's CF 1.6/1.7 compliant. But he uses "time" as one of the named dimensions of many of the variables, but also uses "time" as a 2-d variable, not related to that dimension.<div><br></div><div>When I try to read any of the variables that have time as a dimension, I get this error:</div><div><br></div><div><font face="monospace, monospace">fatal:_NclOneDValCoordDataCreate: Number of dimensions is greater than one, could not create coordinate data object</font></div><div><br></div><div>I also cannot write a _FillValue to the time variable since NCL believes time to be a coordinate variable. (no error provided, it just doesn't do it).</div><div><br></div><div>It'd probably be cleaner to just rename one of the "times", but we were just curious if the current format runs afoul of the CF convention or whether NCL is adding the extra limitations.</div><div><br></div><div>Thanks!</div><div>Carl<br clear="all"><div><br></div>-- <br><div class="gmail_signature"><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><br><table border="0" cellpadding="2" cellspacing="2" style="background-color:transparent;max-width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;color:rgb(51,51,51);font-size:14px;border:3px solid rgb(170,170,170);font-family:Times;line-height:12px"><tbody><tr><td align="center" height="71" width="71"><span style="font-size:11px"><span style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif"><a href="https://ncics.org/" style="color:rgb(17,85,204)" target="_blank"><img src="https://ncics.org/ncics/img/NCICS_logo-131x131.png"></a></span></span></td><td valign="top"><span style="font-size:11px"><span style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif"><b>Carl J.
