1 NCL NCL stands for NCAR Command Language. It is similar to IDL and MATLAB. It is most convenient for reading NetCDF files and plotting maps, but there are various routines for creating many other types of plots. There are also many “built-in” functions to process data including many statistical routines. More information at http://www.ncl.ucar.edu/
