Hi Matt, Your understanding of the quantization implementation is correct on all counts. The actual # of bits per digit is ln(10)/ln(2) ~ 3.32. And note that netCDF implementation defines NSB as the number of _explicitly stored bits_, which is one less than the number of significant bits because the IEEE format implicitly defines the first significant bit as 1. Thus NSB <=23 not <=24. Charlie -- Charlie Zender, Earth System Sci. & Computer Sci. University of California, Irvine 949-891-2429 )'(
