To use netCDF data for calculation in a Fortran program, we provide a netCDF Fortran programming interface and library. You need to install the netCDF Fortran library and then call netCDF Fortran functions to read the data into Fortran arrays. There are some example programs for writing and reading netCDF data in Fortran by following links on this page: http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/netcdf/examples/programs/ You will see examples in Fortran-77 and Fortran-90, corresponding to the two Fortran library interfaces we provide. The full documentation for the two Fortran netCDF libraries is here: http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/netcdf/docs/netcdf-f77.html http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/netcdf/docs/netcdf-f90.html To download, build, and install the netCDF Fortran libraries, you will need to follow these instructions: http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/netcdf/docs/netcdf-fortran-install.html Just to repeat what I said in the earlier response, I don't know of any software to convert netCDF data to .dat format, and I don't believe such software exists. --Russ > From: Unidata netCDF Support <address@hidden> > To: address@hidden > Cc: address@hidden > Sent: Tuesday, November 20, 2012 8:50 AM > Subject: [netCDF #CVX-510046]: convert netcdf to dat > > Hi Elaheh, > > > Could you please tell me how I can convert netcdf to dat?
