You may wish to save yourself some trouble, and use a tool that
produces cf-compliant files, such as cdo (Climate Data Operators) [1].
in a nutshell this should be accomplished with a simple command:
cdo -f nc copy in.nc out.nc
although there is no guarantee that your particular file will be
recognized properly by cdo...
