In rijaf-iri/CDTDownload: Download gridded data used by Climate Data Tools (CDT)

Description Usage Arguments Value Examples

This function download JRA-55 minimum and maximum temperature at 2 meters above ground and extract it over a specified region.

temp_jra55_minmax_surf(start_date = "2019-05-01",
  end_date = "2019-05-31", output.dir = getwd(), grads.bin = "grads",
  range.lon = c(-180, 180), range.lat = c(-89.57, 89.57),
  tstep = c("daily", "hourly3"), username = NA, password = NA)

`start_date`	Start date to be downloaded, a character in the form "YYYY-MM-DD".
`end_date`	End date to be downloaded, a character in the form "YYYY-MM-DD".
`output.dir`	Full path to the directory where the downloaded and extracted files will be saved; default to the working directory.
`grads.bin`	Full path name of GrADS executable. For Mac and Linux, you can use `"grads"` if GrADS is in your PATH environment variable.
`range.lon`	A numeric vector of length 2; minimum and maximum longitude of the area to be extracted; default c(-180, 180).
`range.lat`	A numeric vector of length 2; minimum and maximum latitude of the area to be extracted; default c(-89.570, 89.570).
`tstep`	The time steps of the extracted data. Useful values are `"daily"` (aggregated to daily data) and `"hourly3"` (3-hourly data).
`username`	Your user ID for JMA Data Dissemination System (JDDS).
`password`	Your password for JDDS.

A directory named "GRIB" and "Extracted" are created. "GRIB" contains the downloaded GRIB data and "Extracted" contains the extracted data in NetCDF format over the area that you specified.
