This file has reasonable time coordinate, which has been confirmed by ncdump and cdo. But it shows NaT after a time point by reading the file using xr.open_dataset. I printed out outputs of processing this file using some commands in a jyputer notebook in a pdf file, which is also attached. I really have no idea why xr.open_datase cannot read the time coordinate properly. Then, I thought maybe I can redefine its time axis by pd.date_range. But it is also not working. Thank you so much!
