<font size ="2"><font size ="2">I have tried with an ordinary linear X dimensions,but it's not working. I have used ncdump -v Lon nameofthefile but,as you can see in the file attached,the values are overwhelming(and the data is on many pages long;what you have in the file is only a snapshot)... What does it means?How should I write the X coordinate in the descriptor file? I have to say that I use data from CMIP5, rcp85 for sst.</font></font></p>
