I think this is due to the encoding, but I'm not sure how to fix it. **What you expected to happen**: I expected the final line of code give me ```python #array(['2000-01-01T00:00:00.000000000', '2000-01-01T01:00:00.000000000', # '2000-01-01T02:00:00.000000000', '2000-01-01T03:00:00.000000000', # '2000-01-01T04:00:00.000000000'], dtype='datetime64[ns]') ``` Instead, it outputs ```python #array(['2000-01-01T00:00:00.000000000', '2000-01-01T00:00:00.000000000', # '2000-01-01T00:00:00.000000000', '2000-01-01T00:00:00.000000000', # '2000-01-01T00:00:00.000000000'], dtype='datetime64[ns]') ``` **Minimal Complete Verifiable Example**: ```python import xarray as xr time = pd.date_range(""2000-01-01"", freq=""1D"", periods=365 ) ds = xr.Dataset({""foo"": (""time"", np.arange(365)), ""time"": time}) ds.to_netcdf('test5.nc') ds = xr.open_dataset('test5.nc') ds.time.encoding # padding ds_hourly = ds.resample(time='1h').pad() ds_hourly.time.values[0:5] #array(['2000-01-01T00:00:00.000000000', '2000-01-01T01:00:00.000000000', # '2000-01-01T02:00:00.000000000', '2000-01-01T03:00:00.000000000', # '2000-01-01T04:00:00.000000000'], dtype='datetime64[ns]') ds_hourly.to_netcdf('test6.nc') # load the padded data file ds_hourly_load = xr.open_dataset('test6.nc') ds_hourly_load.time.values[0:5] #array(['2000-01-01T00:00:00.000000000', '2000-01-01T00:00:00.000000000', # '2000-01-01T00:00:00.000000000', '2000-01-01T00:00:00.000000000', # '2000-01-01T00:00:00.000000000'], dtype='datetime64[ns]') ``` **Anything else we need to know?**: **Environment**: xarray version: '0.15.1'
