Re: nc_add_recs.m

[Dave Allured <dave.allured@xxxxxxxx>]

This is easy to do in NCL.  See attached NCL script.  This demo 
makes a new Netcdf file with a 3D variable as you specified.  By 
changing to "append mode" in the addfile statement, you could add 
the same kind of array to a pre-existing Netcdf file.  Will an NCL 
solution work for you?
