In pbdNCDF4: Programming with Big Data -- Interface to Parallel Unidata NetCDF4 Format Data Files

Description

Switches between the default individual access and collective access for a variable in a file that was opened with nc_open_par or nc_create_par.

Usage

  nc_var_par_access(nc, var, collective = TRUE, verbose = FALSE)

Arguments

nc	An object of class ncdf4 (as returned by either function nc_open_par or function nc_create_par), indicating what file to read from.
var	Variable name or id.
collective	use collective method to read and write.
verbose	If TRUE, then messages are printed out during execution of this function.
