-====== Reformatting files to AeroCom/HTAP standards ====== 
  
-**Note: these commands cover the elder phase 3 naming scheme, but should nevertheless still usefull** 
- 
-The AeroCom standard is described in the section "submitting to the AeroCom database".\\ 
-https://wiki.met.no/aerocom/data_submission 
- 
-Below simple nco commands are listed which can be of help to reformat. 
- 
-A public set of format correction tools is under development and can be accessed here:\\ 
-https://github.com/metno/aerocom-data-correction-tools 
- 
-Format can be checked with a CF checker, eg:\\ 
-http://cf-checker.met.no/upload 
- 
-===== How to remind me of nco commands ===== 
-Just type the command without arguments on a command line 
- 
-===== How to rename variables ===== 
- ncrename -v oldvar,newvar in.nc 
- 
-===== How to add an attribute =====

- 
-===== turn z ===== 
- ncpdq -O -a -z $file $file 
- 
-===== create yearly mean file ===== 
-from 12 months in one file 
- orgfile=MM_${model}.an${an}.mALLYEAR_an.nc  
- ncwa -F -O -a time ${file} ${orgfile} 
- 
-===== calculate yearly average ===== 
- fom 12 files each containing 1 month 
- ncra -F -O  modis_2000??.nc ${yearfile} 
- 
-===== create record dimension ===== 
- ncecat -O $file $file  
- 
-===== delete useless record dimension ===== 
- ncwa -O -a record $file $file  
- 
-===== turn lat to have right order ===== 
- with interpolated files  
- ncpdq -O -a "-y" $file $file  
- 
-===== Shift left and right hemispheres ===== 
- file1=aire_1.nc 
- ncks -h -F -O -d x,1,180 $file $file1 
- file2=aire_2.nc 
- ncks -h -F -O -d x,181,360 $file $file2 
- ncap -O -s "x[x]=x-360" $file2 $file2 
- 
- ncrcat -O $file2 $file1 $file 
- \rm  $file1 $file2 
- 
-

- ncwa -O -a record $file $file  
- 
- file1=DD_${model}.an${AN}.mALLYEAR_1.nc

- ncpdq -O -a time,y,x $file $file  
- 
-===== missing values =====  
- ncatted -O -a missing_value,$var,o,f,0 ${file}  
- ncatted -O -a missing_value,$var,o,f,-9999 ${file}  
- 
-actually better use attribute _FillValue (see http://nco.sourceforge.net) 
- 
- 
-===== compute monthly mean files ===== 
- 
-    for IMTH in ${MTH[*]} ; do  
- file=DD_${model}.an${AN}.m${IMTH}.nc
