Hello,
I am looking to have Ferret merge variables in 4 datasets into one continuous time series without having to save,append new files and variables to my directory. This is because my files are very large.
For example,
I have 4 datasets:
dataset1 is
heat.nc var_name (time is from years 1-5)
dateset2 is
heat.nc var_name (time is from years 6-10)
The files have the same variable and the time dimension only varies with where it begins and ends. I could concatenate these files on my server, or with Ferret, but both of these methods involve creating a new file; which is not what I want to do.
Is it possible to create a new variable that "strings" together these two datasets into one continuous variable from years 1-10?
Thanks in advance
