Hi,
Please help me. I am trying to get information on "soi" from the NetCDF
file (please see the attached).

The file is showing this info-

float soi(time=2001, *MCrun=20, members=100*);
  :description = "soi";
  :long_name = "Southern Oscillation Index";
  :units = "";
  :level = "sfc";

And Dimentions----

5 dimensions:
        *time  Size:2001*
            description: time
            long_name: Time
            standard_name: time
            units: *days since 0000-01-01 00:00:00*
            calendar: noleap
            actual_range: 0
             *actual_range: 730000*
      *  MCrun  Size:20*


I am not aware of *MCrun* and *members *gaven in a file. I wants to
create csv output and ggplot (line) in form of years.

like this format---

*Longitude     Latitude     Year     soi*


Please help me, my script is here-

rm(list=ls(all=TRUE))
library(ncdf4)
library(ggplot2)
library(ncdf4.helpers)
setwd("D:/work/")
ncfile <-nc_open("posterior_climate_indices_MCruns_ensemble_full_LMRv2.1.nc
")
head(ncfile)
lon <- ncvar_get(ncfile, "lon_npac")
lat<- ncvar_get(ncfile, "lat_npac", verbose = F)
tt<- ncvar_get(ncfile, "time")
units<- ncatt_get(ncfile, "time", "units")
soi <- ncvar_get(ncfile, "soi")
soi_final = data.frame(cbind(lon, lat, tt, soi))

#output
write.csv(amo_final, "soi.csv", row.names = FALSE)

#plot
ggplot(data = soi_final, aes(x = time, y = soi)) +
  geom_line() +
  xlab("Year") + ylab("soi") +
  ggtitle("SOI from 1-2001") +
  theme_classic()


thank you

wish you good health.

Hi Shailendra:

You didn't provide the error messages you received,  which makes it difficult to answer.  I will say here is at least one typo,  in:
You have only defined "soi_final". But I would also be surprised if either of the "cbind()" or "dataframe()" commands works,  as everything is of different sizes.

HTH,

-Roy
