[IDV #LEH-376488]: 4D import

it turns out the IDV is not yet supporting an ensemble dimension. we will get 
back to you when we know more about when that might be supported.

> No problem!  I've added the AxisType attribute to the "model" dimension and 
> the global attribute, Conventions, but that didn't quite seem to fix the 
> issue.  I'll look through the CF conventions some more and see what I can 
> find.  The "Model" dimension is representative of the GCM scenario that 
> produced the data: 1-112 models in the CMIP3 climate projection dataset.
