DODS download for detrended-bfl $partialdiff sub T$ $integral dY$ [ NOAA NCDC ERSST version3b sst ]

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/.NOAA/.NCDC/.ERSST/.version3b/.sst/0.0/%5BY%5Dintegrate/%5BT%5Dpartial/%5BX%5D0/detrend-bfl/ngridtable/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.
