Thanks for your reply. But it says "Error in (function (classes, fdef, mtable)): unable to find an inherited method for function 'brick' for signature 'ncdf4' "
The dataset is attached. It contains daily precipitation data for 20 years, within a rectangle, so that there are several grid points. I use the code to open it, but don't know how to get csv files, while each file contains continuous daily precipitation data for each grid cell. pre1 = nc_open('sample_precip_daily.nc') pre1 pre1_rd = ncvar_get(pre1, 'precipitation') nc_close(pre1) Thanks for your help.
