setGridUnits: Set grid units

In SantanderMetGroup/transformeR: A climate4R package for general climate data manipulation and transformation

Set grid units

Description

Set the "units" attribute of a grid

Usage

setGridUnits(grid, unit.string, var = NULL)

Arguments

grid	An input grid
unit.string	Character string: a udunits-parseable character string vector. See details.
var	In case of multigrids, the names of the variables whose units attribute is to be updated (see examples).

Details

The length of the unit.string vector should match the number of variables within the grid (in case of multiGrids), i.e., that of getVarNames(grid) or the length of var, in case the latter is used.

Value

Retunrs (invisible) the same input grid with the new "units" attribute in "$Variable" list element.

require(climate4R.datasets)
data(NCEP_Iberia_hus850, NCEP_Iberia_psl, NCEP_Iberia_ta850)
getGridUnits(NCEP_Iberia_hus850)
getGridUnits(NCEP_Iberia_psl)
mf <- makeMultiGrid(NCEP_Iberia_hus850, NCEP_Iberia_psl, NCEP_Iberia_ta850)
getGridUnits(mf)
mf2 <- setGridUnits(mf, unit.string = c("1", "Pa", "Kelvin"))
getGridUnits(mf2)
# Arbitrary subsets of variables within the multigrid can be updated:
getVarNames(mf)
mf3 <- setGridUnits(mf, unit.string = c("1", "Pa"), var = c("hus@850", "psl"))
getGridUnits(mf3)
