Determine multi-year monthly sums.
The function determines multi-year monthly sums from data of a single CM SAF NetCDF input file.
ymonsum(var, infile, outfile, nc34 = 4, overwrite = FALSE, verbose = FALSE)
var |
Name of NetCDF variable (character). |
infile |
Filename of input NetCDF file. This may include the directory (character). |
outfile |
Filename of output NetCDF file. This may include the directory (character). |
nc34 |
NetCDF version of output file. If |
overwrite |
logical; should existing output file be overwritten? |
verbose |
logical; if TRUE, progress messages are shown |
A NetCDF file including a time series of multi-year monthly sums is written.
