Hi David,
       There is nothing wrong with the IDV or your dataset. Inside this nc 
dataset, there are two set projections, polar stereographic and lat/lon. When 
you load a 2D variable, it is using lat/lon projection. 
If you want to see the same projection for 3D variable, you can turn off the 
auto set projection under Projections > Auto-set Projection before creating the 
display. If you want to switch between these two 
projections, right click on the legend of one of  display and select: View > 
Use Grid Projection. The IDV will do the work of converting the projection 
automatically for you.
