Hi Michael,I tested this NcML code, and it successfully removes an attribute from a variable and a global attribute. The only difference in the syntax between the two is scoping down into the variable for the variable attribute:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?><netcdf xmlns="http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/namespaces/netcdf/ncml-2.2" location="C:/Users/madry/test/RE_UBA_A1B_D3_MM_WIND_SPEED_1-1200.nc">
<remove name="unwantedGlobalAttribute" type="attribute"/> <variable name="someVariable"> <remove name="unwantedVariableAttribute" type="attribute" /> </variable> </netcdf>An example is also documented on the NcML Cookbook page that will be coming out when version 4.4.1 is deployed.

I see in the NcML cookbook how to remove attributres for specific variables. Is there also a way to remove "Global Attributes" from a THREDDS aggregation dataset? https://www.unidata.ucar.edu/software/thredds/current/netcdf-java/ncml/v2.2/Cookbook.html My reason for wanting this is that specific "history" metadata for the 2nd to last NetCDF file is creeping into the (penultimate) aggregation. I would like to remove/clear the "history" attribute in the Global info, or change it to a custom value within the specific catalog. e.g., http://tds.hycom.org/thredds/dodsC/GLBa0.08/expt_91.0.html history: archv2ncdf2d for run date 2013120818 _______________________________________________ thredds mailing list thredds@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx For list information or to unsubscribe, visit: http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/mailing_lists/
