Hi James, >> Is there no way to delete a dimension, a variable or a data element from >> a netCDF database? In case you don't know about NCO, most of the NCO operators will delete variables from existing netCDF files with, e.g., ncks -x -v var1,var2 in.nc out.nc When all the variables containing a given dimension have been deleted, the above command automatically deletes the dimension as well. See http://www.cgd.ucar.edu/cms/nco for more details. Charlie -- Charlie Zender Voice: (303) 497-1612, FAX: 497-1324 NCAR ACD & CGD E-mail: zender@xxxxxxxxxxxxx P.O.
