CDO resetting date/time -- changing value of time variable during conversion
Added by Karamjeet Khalsa over 12 years ago
I am converting some data files using CDO remap. During the remapping process, CDO prints the warning:
"Warning (splitTimevalue) : Reset wrong date/time to 0002-15-01 00:00:00!"
And the value of the time variable changes from:
21566.0 (In the original file)
to
21501.0 (In the converted file).
I'm not sure why this is happening.
If I call ncdump on the file, the time variable has several attributes:
time:long_name = "days since start of the run" :
time:beg_date = "00590101"
Why is CDO changing the value of the time variable? Any help is appreciated.

It seems that the time variable of your netCDF file is not interpreted correctly. This can have several reasons. I assume that the time attributes do not follow the CF convention. Maybe the time units is missing in the netCDF file.
