Add time axis to 1d weight variables in history files #2399

Open samsrabin opened 7 months ago

samsrabin commented 7 months ago

Various 1-d weight variables, like land1d_wtgcell, change over time. However, they don't get saved with a time axis on the history files, so ncrcat will just give you the first timestep's values. This can be overcome with an additional call of ncecat -u time, but that's annoying and something that new users don't know to do.

Make sure to NOT do this if the weights aren't time-varying. This saves space in the case where you have a non-transient run with multiple timesteps per file.

Changed the "simple bfb" tag to just "simple", since presumably this will change results for one test or another.
