Change coordinates level

Added by Guilherme Martins over 11 years ago

How do I convert my file to level pressure using CDO? The information below is from my file, I saw that the level pressure is generic, but I want pressure level (millibar).

File format: netCDF
-1 : Institut Source Ttype Levels Num Gridsize Num Dtype : Parameter ID
1 : unknown unknown instant 17 1 73 1 F32 : -1
Grid coordinates :
1 : lonlat > size : dim = 73 nlon = 1 nlat = 73
lon : first = 0 degrees_east
lat : first = -90 last = 90 inc = 2.5 degrees_north
Vertical coordinates :
1 : generic level : 1000 925 850 775 700 500 400 300 250 200 150 100
70 50 30 20 10

CDO supports the following units of a pressure level axis:

millibar, mbar, hectopascal, hPa, Pa
You can set the units attribute with the NCO tool ncatted.
