Answer 1

Do you want to visualize it with R ?

If it is not a problem to visualize with another software, you can use ncBrowse, available here, or Panoply, a more complex one, provided by NASA, which you can donwload here.

If you want to work with R, you can use ncdf package. You will be able to extract your data thanks to the get.var.ncdffunction. You can plot it thanks to the sp package and spplotfunction or use the rglpackage (or else scatterplot).
