afterburner: ECHAM standard post processor

In rcdo: Wrapper of 'CDO' Operators

ECHAM standard post processor

Description

The "afterburner" is the standard post processor for ECHAM GRIB and NetCDF data which provides the following operations: - Extract specified variables and levels - Compute derived variables - Transform spectral data to Gaussian grid representation - Vertical interpolation to pressure levels - Compute temporal means This operator reads selection parameters as namelist from stdin. Use the UNIX redirection "<namelistfile" to read the namelist from file. The input files can't be combined with other CDO operators because of an optimized reader for this operator.

Usage

cdo_after(ifiles, vct = NULL, ofile = NULL)

Arguments

ifiles	Character vector with the path to the input files.
vct	STRING - File with VCT in ASCII format
ofile	String with the path to the output file.

Value

Operators that output one or more files return a character vector to the output files.

Operators that output an indefinite number of files return a string with the basename of the files.

Operatos that don't return filenames return a character vector with the string output.
