getClimTS: Get time series of climate means from CESM history files
In garciapintado/rdafCESM: Setup and Assimilation of CESM

Description Usage Arguments Details Value Author(s)

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.

1 2	getClimTS(tlimStr = NULL, DOUT_S_ROOT, CASE, by = "year", allowNA = TRUE, comps = NULL, loop = NULL, overwrite = FALSE, compvars = NULL)

`tlimStr`	CHARACTER, [2], close,open interval [tlimyStr) representing the time-window for the model climatic averages. The format is AAAA-MM-DD HH:MM:SS. NULL will result in climatic TS over all available files in input folders
`DOUT_S_ROOT`	CHARACTER, [m], path to model data storage for IO, as defined in CESM documentation. It is assumed that input NetCDF files are given on a monthly basis, and that for each 'im' ensemble member and $com component, they are stored in `$DOUT_S_ROOT[im]/$com/hist`. Out is then at `$DOUT_S_ROOT[im]/$com/post`, unles `loop` below is not null
`CASE`	CHARACTER, [m], as defined in CESM documentation
`by`	CHARACTER or REAL, increment of the sequence, given as input to seq.POSIXt function. See details.
`allowNA`	LOGICAL, whether it is allowed that some ensemble members are not present
`comps`	CHARACTER, [>=1], vector of model components to be analysed, in: ["atm", "ice", "lnd", "ocn", "rof"]
`loop`	CHARACTER, if not NULL, output for each component $com will be stored in subfolder '$DOUT_S_ROOT[im]/$com/post/$loop'
`overwrite`	LOGICAL, if FALSE, only non existing output fiels will be 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

If comps is NULL, all components shown above are obtained. This function is a wrapper around the NCO command ncra. See the by argument in seq.POSIXt for specification details. The default is to create annual time series. For example, by="3 months" makes a seasonal time series, or by="10 years" makes a decadal time series.

Writes a series of netCDF files of climatic averages, out of CESM history files.
