contains the nc file I downloaded from cchdo.ucsd.edu, the exchange file, and another nc file that I made on my own machine (out.nc)

Specifically, something is wrong with the cast variable that @eaitoro occasionally sees ncdump crash on. She reports this is with both the online file, and one she made herself.

DocOtak commented 1 year ago

Some good news, this is purely an issue with the "C_format" attribute and ncdump trying to print the integer dtype with a floating point format string. The underlying data in the netCDF files accurately reflects the input data.

I think the fix will be to remove the C_format attrs from anything that is not a floating point type variable (either single or double).
