After downloading the zip file to your Windows computer, you can install this R package most quickly by opening a Rgui.exe window, then going to the menus and choosing Packages>Install package(s) from local zip files…, select the zip file you downloaded, and hit Open to have R install the package.

To use the package in R, you must run a 32-bit instance of R, and type library(ncdf4) to load the package.
