If the code that reads variable values from the tales encounters an array, then it will convert that array into a string. https://github.com/PCMDI/cmor/blob/10bb94a9ade675eaf72d5dd15e1be036e4127678/Src/cmor_tables.c#L215-L233 Values for `dimensions` and `modeling_realm` will get...

Yes, CMOR 3.8 should still work with cmip6-cmor-tables.

@taylor13 Could you point to examples of this happening in the CMIP6 archive?

I noticed an inconsistency between the Metagrid and NetCDF metadata. Looking at the dataset CMIP6.DCPP.DWD.MPI-ESM1-2-LR.dcppA-hindcast.s1975-r2i1p1f1.day.tasmax.gn from the search https://aims2.llnl.gov/search/cmip6/?frequency=mon&table_id=day. The info in the "Metadata" tag for this dataset lists `frequency:...

I've tested the file that has daily data but has a monthly frequency and table by running it through PrePARE. Full output below. ``` PrePARE /Users/mauzey1/Downloads/tasmax_day_MPI-ESM1-2-LR_dcppA-hindcast_s1975-r2i1p1f1_gn_19751101-19851231.nc C Traceback: ! In...

Here's an ncdump of the file header ``` ncdump -h /Users/mauzey1/Downloads/tasmax_day_MPI-ESM1-2-LR_dc ppA-hindcast_s1975-r2i1p1f1_gn_19751101-19851231.nc netcdf tasmax_day_MPI-ESM1-2-LR_dcppA-hindcast_s1975-r2i1p1f1_gn_19751101-19851231 { dimensions: bnds = 2 ; time = UNLIMITED ; // (3714 currently) lat = 96...

@larsbuntemeyer Could you provide some CORDEX dataset files that I could try to debug PrePARE with? Thank you.

CMOR doesn't seem to use the values in the `DRS` section in CMIP6_CV.json. I'm not sure if it should. @durack1 @taylor13 Any thoughts on this? Regarding the parts where `cmor_CV_checkParentExpID`...
