[R-sig-Geo] problem in reading NC file and plot it

I think you can do all you want using the functionality in the raster
package. E.g. you can read the ncdf file into R as a raster brick, which is
fairly easy to work with.
Something the this might work:

require(raster);require(ncdf)
# Assuming that the variable name is slp
b <- brick(slp.mon.mean.nc, varname = 'slp')
# now you can plot any of the time step using:
plot(raster(b, layer = 1))# time step one

But there might be several other ways to do what you want.

Regards,
Lars
