[MITgcm-support] How to join two nc files?

[Baylor Fox-Kemper]

Hi Ed,
   Yes, those are useful, too, especially for exch2.  I must point  
out, though that nco can't concatenate different tiles, it can only  
concatenate along the unlimited (i.e. time) dimension.  It can split  
along any dimension, though.
    One more netcdf utility to mention:   MITgcm/utils/matlab/ 
interpickups.m which joins and interpolates pickup files.
