fast ice files

Description

Data frame of all available fast ice files.

Usage

fasticefiles(
  product = c("circum_fast_ice", "binary_fast_ice"),
  mask = FALSE,
  ...
)

Arguments

product	which product
mask	if TRUE return mask file name
...	reserved for future use, currently ignored

Details

A data frame with file, date, fullname

Note that this product changed from the legacy 2000-2008 initial East Antarctic product "binary_fast_ice" to the circumpolar update "circum_fast_ice" 2000-2018 in Feburary 2021.

If you want the old files, use ‘product = "binary_fast_ice"', but it’s safe to assume the default product supersedes the old one.

The initial product was in Cylindrical Equal Area projection, while the circumpolar product uses the NSIDC-compatible polar stereographic (but with an unspecified extent, though implicit in the longitude and latitude arrays of the NetCDF files).

Exists in 'public.services.aad.gov.au/datasets/science' (Feb 2021).

Value

data frame
