In jmp75/efts: High-Level Functions to Read and Write Ensemble Forecast Time Series in netCDF

Creates dimensions for a netCDF EFTS data set

Description

Creates dimensions for a netCDF EFTS data set. Note that end users are unlikely to need to use this function directly, hence this is not exported

Usage

create_nc_dims(time_dim_info, str_len = 30, lead_length = 1,
  ensemble_length = 1, num_stations = 1)

Arguments

time_dim_info	a list with the units and values defining the time dimension of the data set
str_len	maximum length of the character for the station identifiers.
lead_length	length of the lead time.
ensemble_length	number of ensembles, i.e. number of forecasts for each point on the main time axis of the data set
num_stations	number of stations

Value

A list of ncdf4 dimensions
