Which HYCOM archives cover a given date

Source: R/hycom.R
hycom_covering.Rd

The archives overlap, so a date can fall in more than one, and after 2015 the choice between them is a judgement rather than a lookup — the reanalysis is the more internally consistent, the operational run the more recent. This reports the candidates instead of picking one.

Usage

hycom_covering(dates)

Arguments

dates

one or more Date values, or anything parse_dates() accepts

Value

the names of the archives spanning every date given, in catalog order; empty if none does

hycom_covering("2010-06-15")     # the reanalysis alone

#> [1] "GLBv53X" "GLBv563"
hycom_covering("2025-06-15")     # none: past the end of the record
