+ <longdescription lang="en">
+ NetCDF (network Common Data Form) is an interface for scientific
+ data access and a freely-distributed software library that provides an
+ implementation of the interface. The netCDF library also defines a
+ machine-independent format for representing scientific data.
+ Together, the interface, library, and format support the creation,
+ access, and sharing of scientific data.
