oce2ncdf()
works by determining the class of its first argument,
and then dispatching to an internal function, as appropriate.
oce2ncdf(x, varTable = NULL, ncfile = NULL, force_v4 = TRUE, debug = 0)
an oce-class object. The subclass of this object determines
which lower-level function oce2ncdf()
calls, e.g. if x
is of
ctd
class, then ctd2ncdf()
is called.
character value indicating the variable-naming
scheme to be used, which is passed to read.varTable()
to set
up variable names, units, etc.
character value naming the output file. Use NULL
for a file name to be created automatically (e.g. ctd.nc
for
a CTD object).
logical value which controls the NetCDF file version during the nc_create step. The default here is TRUE, whereas the ncdf4-package defaults to FALSE (ensuring that the NetCDF file is compatible with NetCDF v3). Some features, including large data sizes, may require v4.
integer, 0 (the default) for quiet action apart from messages and warnings, or any larger value to see more output that describes the processing steps.
