Ignoring time in ensmean

Added by Robert Wilson over 4 years ago

Is it possible to ignore time in ensmean, and just calculate a straight mean across all data?

I have daily temperature data for 1 year, split over 12 monthly files, with each monthly file containing the temperatures for each day. I want to calculate the yearly mean temperature from the data.

This is an options in NCO, using ncra. But I am wondering if there is a way to adjust the ensmean call in CDO so that it ignores the time dimension when calculating the ensemble mean.

Regards

Robert

Thats not possible.
Use timmean or yearmean in combination with cat or mergetime:

cdo timmean -cat <mon_files> result

That works well enough for my purposes.
