[Go-essp-tech] Are atomic datasets mutable?

[stephen.pascoe at stfc.ac.uk]

Hi all,
 
The UKMO has flagged up a use case where an atomic dataset might change
over time without being a new version.  The example is the 1000 year
piControl run where UKMO is likely to deliver it in several time chunks
and would want it to be published before the full run is complete.
Since atomic datasets represent the whole time period these datasets
will grow over time.
 
I am tempted to say each addition to the dataset triggers a new version
that deprecates the previous one but UKMO wasn't too keen on that.  Any
ideas?
 
S.
