Hi Karin,

Thanks for your prompt reply!
The 199902 dataset is just one of the datasets I want to read, I selected that one randomly and every single dataset got the same warning as:
>> warning:_NclOpenFile: Can not open file </.../.../merra2/MERRA2_200.tavgM_3d_cld_Np.199902.nc4.nc>; file format not supported or file is corrupted

> 


The ncl_filedump output is like this:

Variable: f
Type: file
filename:	MERRA2_400.tavgM_3d_cld_Np.201112.nc4
path:	/.../MERRA2_400.tavgM_3d_cld_Np.201112.nc4.nc
