Hello,
We are building NOAA aerosol reanalysis that will contain files with
multiple 3d variables in CF-1 complaint format and will be archived at
NCEI. I looked at the manual and it seems an easy way to perform
compression is to set deflate_level=2 in nf90_def_var
Does that seem like a reasonable approach?
Thanks,
Mariusz
