Perhaps these will help —
they point to the same URL
from IRI’s data server,
but describe two different
ensemble foreasts. The
first is initialized
January 2012, the second
is initialized in February
2012. The only difference
is in the variable
declaration (where
integers are used instead
of letters to specify
which array index to use
for that coordinate). It
might make more sense if
you do an ncdump on the
URL and examine the
metadata.
