[Wrf-users] How to record the output of a simulation in just one single file ?

[Jose Augusto Paixão Veiga]

Dear Lee, Dominikus and Bart

thank you very much for all your hints. Now I can choose between your
answers what is the best option to my purposes.

I will still consider the use of NCO's ncrcat after my simulations. If one
of you could send me links to explore it I'll appreciate.

I believe CDO (https://code.zmaw.de/projects/cdo) is another peer tool to
manipulate output data.

Cheers
