<div dir="ltr"><div><div>Hi Carl/Maria,<br></div>This a not a terribly clean solution, but when I need to do that type of averaging I use the dim_avg* functions which happily ignore the data with _FillValue's and will average over whatever data is there. The negative to doing this is that you need to call dim_avg multiple times within a do loop:<br><br>ssttemp = sst_t<br>ssttemp = ssttemp@_FillValue<br>do qq = 1,dimsizes(sst_t&time)-3 ; calculate 4-mo running average<br> ssttemp(:,:,qq) = dim_avg(sst_t(:,:,qq-1:qq+2)) ; missing data allowed<br>end do<br></div>delete(sst_t)<br><div><br></div><div>All that being said, I agree that a version of runave that allows _FillValue data would be useful..
