OSError: [Errno -51] NetCDF: Unknown file format

[stacyqxz]

Hi all,

Any idea why this error occurs? I downloaded the datasets from the ESGF website and read them locally in the recipe. This happened more often with the FGOALS-g3 and the NorESM2 models.

Thank you in advance

Actually never mind. I looked over the datasets and found that there are some issues with the files themselves. It has nothing to do with the iris package nor the ESMValTool.
