To make a client work, you would install the software on your computer.
Then, you would enter the URL of the WMS service into the client.
For example, in ArcGIS (not yet fully working because it doesn't handle time!), use
In practice, we haven't found any WMS clients that properly handle dimensions
other than longitude and latitude (e.g., time), a feature which is specified by the WMS
specification and which is utilized by most datasets in ERDDAP's WMS servers.
You may find that using
Make A Graph
and selecting the .kml file type (an OGC
standard) to load images into Google Earth provides
a good (non-WMS) map client.

, which is a very versatile WMS client.
Leaflet doesn't automatically deal with dimensions other than longitude and latitude
(e.g., time), so you will have to write JavaScript (or other scripting code) to do that.
(Adventurous JavaScript programmers can look at the Souce Code for this web page.)
Another commonly used JavaScript WMS client is
OpenLayers.
In practice, it is easier, more versatile, and more efficient to use this dataset's Make A Graph web page than to use WMS for this purpose. See the list of datasets with Make A Graph at this ERDDAP installation.
