We have added quantization with the bitgroom algorithm to the netCDF C (and Fortran) library. So now users can specify a required number of significant digits for a variable, and the excess bits are (in alternating floats) set to 0 and 1. In this way, the data compresses a lot better.
The combination of quantization and compression yields lossy compression.
This capability should be added to PIO.
