getClimMeans: Get climate means from CESM history files

In garciapintado/rdafCESM: Setup and Assimilation of CESM

Description

Get climate means from CESM history files for the requested components through recursive calling to NCO command ncra. All variables in the original files are included in the temporal means.

Usage

getClimMeans(tlimStr, DOUT_S_ROOT, CASE, getMonths = TRUE, allowNA = TRUE,
             comps = NULL, loop = NULL, overwrite = FALSE, compvars = NULL)

Arguments

tlimStr	CHARACTER, [2], close,open interval [tlimyStr) representing the time-averaged footprint for the model climatic averages. The format is AAAA-MM-DD HH:MM:ss
DOUT_S_ROOT	CHARACTER, [m] path to model data storage for IO, as defined in CESM documentation
CASE	CHARACTER, [m], as defined in CESM documentation
getMonths	LOGICAL, whether mean momthly climatic averages have been previously calculated
allowNA	Is allowed that some ensemble member has failed
comps	[>=1] CHARACTER of model component to be analysed, in: c("atm", "ice", "lnd", "ocn", "rof")
loop	[1] CHARACTER: If not NULL, output for each component $com will be stored in subfolder '$DOUT_S_ROOT/$com/post/$loop'
overwrite	[1] LOGICAL, whether to overwrite previous monthly calculations. Seasonal and annual mean over the interval are always recalculated
compvars	named LIST, OPTIONAL, with each named element matching one of those above in code. If not NULL each element is a CHARACTER vector with the names of variables to be kept in the mean output files

Details

If comps is NULL, all components shown above are obtained.

Value

Write netCDF files of climatic averages, out of CESM history files, for the requested range
