The Unidata netCDF group is pleased to announce the 4.2 release of the netCDF C library.
This release contains performance enhancements, bug fixes, a few new features in utilities, and internal refactoring. It is designed to be compatible with existing netCDF data and software.
The Climate and Scientific Computing group at UC Irvine seeks a permanent, full time programmer with enthusiasm for applying advanced computing techniques to global environmental problems. We develop software to analyze climate model and satellite data in order to improve understanding of Earth's climate.
Version 4.0.9 of the netCDF Operators (NCO) has been released. NCO is an Open Source package that consists of a dozen standalone, command-line programs that take netCDF files as input, then operate (e.g., derive new data, average, print, hyperslab, manipulate metadata) and output the results to screen or files in text, binary, or netCDF formats.
NCAR's Computational and Information Systems Laboratory (CISL) Research Data Archive (RDA) contains a large and diverse collection of meteorological and oceanographic observations, operational and reanalysis model outputs, and remote sensing datasets to support atmospheric and geosciences research, along with ancillary datasets, such as topography/bathymetry, vegetation, and land use.
CISL's Data Support Section, which manages the Research Data Archive, recently announced that users of some subsets of the archived data can request files in NetCDF format.
