Merge a new met variable from an external file (e.g. CO2) into existing met files

Merge a new met variable from an external file (e.g. CO2) into existing met files

merge_met_variable(in.path, in.prefix, start_date, end_date, merge.file,
  overwrite = FALSE, verbose = FALSE, ...)

Arguments

in.path	path to original data
in.prefix	prefix of original data
start_date
end_date
merge.file	path of file to be merged in
overwrite	logical: replace output file if it already exists?
verbose	logical: should ncdf4 functions print debugging information as they run?
...

Details

Currently modifies the files IN PLACE rather than creating a new copy of the files an a new DB record. Currently unit and name checking only implemented for CO2. Currently does not yet support merge data that has lat/lon New variable only has time dimension and thus MIGHT break downstream code....

Examples

# NOT RUN {
in.path    <- "~/paleon/PalEONregional_CF_site_1-24047/"
in.prefix  <- ""
outfolder  <- "~/paleon/metTest/"
merge.file <- "~/paleon/paleon_monthly_co2.nc"
start_date <- "0850-01-01"
end_date   <- "2010-12-31"
overwrite  <- FALSE
verbose    <- TRUE

PEcAn.DALEC::met2model.DALEC(in.path,in.prefix,outfolder,start_date,end_date)
