Variables of data type 'CHAR' have been altered by the xarray and netCDF4-python libraries to contain an extra dimension (often denoted as 'string1'). This is due to an underlying issue in the libraries: https://github.com/pydata/xarray/issues/1977. Upon examination, one will find the data has not been altered but only changed shape.

Data Access Protocol (DAP)
and its
selection constraints
.
The URL specifies what you want: the dataset, a description of the graph or the subset of the data, and the file type for the response.
Tabledap request URLs must be in the form
https://coastwatch.pfeg.noaa.gov/erddap/tabledap/datasetID.fileType{?query}
For example,
https://coastwatch.pfeg.noaa.gov/erddap/tabledap/pmelTaoDySst.htmlTable?longitude,latitude,time,station,wmo_platform_code,T_25&time>=2015-05-23T12:00:00Z&time<=2015-05-31T12:00:00Z
Thus, the query is often a comma-separated list of desired variable names,
followed by a collection of
constraints (e.g., variable<value),
each preceded by '&' (which is interpreted as "AND").
For details, see the tabledap Documentation.
