DODS download for $partialdiff sub T$ root mean sq anom root mean sq anom [ ENACTS version0 dekadal rainfall rfe

Accessing data using your copy of ferret

DODS allows one to give a application a url and have it directly download data. To read this data into ferret use

set data "http://digilib.icpac.net/SOURCES/.ENACTS/.version0/.dekadal/.rainfall/.rfe_mergeddiff/%5BX+%5Drmsaover/%5BY+%5Drmsaover/T+partial/dods"

If ferret refuses to read the file, saying

** netCDF error: Invalid Argument
 is this a CDF file ?

it is quite possible that you can use set data after you download the netcdf file.

If you have questions, comments, or problems please use the help@iri link. This page will evolve as we learn more about how Ferret handles data downloads, and your help pointing out problems is much appreciated.

There is a bug in ferret which is corrected in release 6.0 (see notes about "nonstandard calendar axes"). Please upgrade if you are using monthly data.
