Well, if I use this script: library(ncdf) link <- "http://ibis.grdl.noaa.gov/SAT/SeaLevelRise/slr/slr_sla_gbl_free_all_66.nc" dest <- "C:/temp/slr_sla_gbl_free_all_66.nc" mode="wb": AFAIK download.file(url=link,destfile=dest) nc1 <- open.ncdf(dest)
compiler prints: Error in R_nc_open: Invalid argument Error in open.ncdf trying to open file C:/temp/slr_sla_gbl_free_all_66.nc [Package ncdf is installed correctly] -- View this message in context: http://r.789695.n4.nabble.com/NetCDF-open-nc-tp3659401p3659597.html Sent from the R help mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
