Hello @pbarriat @klein There is a problem with the loading of NetCDF4 libraries for R on Zenobe: ``` fmasson@frontal3 15:12:46 ~ 28 > module purge fmasson@frontal3 15:12:50 ~ 29 > module load R fmasson@frontal3 15:12:52 ~ 30 > R R version 3.5.1 (2018-07-02) -- "Feather Spray" Copyright (C) 2018 The R Foundation for Statistical Computing Platform: x86_64-pc-linux-gnu (64-bit) R is free software and comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY.

Type 'q()' to quit R. > library(ncdf4) Error in library(ncdf4) : there is no package called ‘ncdf4’ ``` Currently, the only way to overcome the problem is to copy the netcdf4 libraries on one's home ``` fmasson@frontal3 15:13:42 ~ 32 > cp -r ~klein/R ~/ fmasson@frontal3 15:13:42 ~ 32 > module purge fmasson@frontal3 15:13:46 ~ 33 > module load R fmasson@frontal3 15:13:49 ~ 34 > R R version 3.5.1 (2018-07-02) -- "Feather Spray" Copyright (C) 2018 The R Foundation for Statistical Computing Platform: x86_64-pc-linux-gnu (64-bit) R is free software and comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY.
