Dear RegCNETers,<div><br></div><div>I have run ./average &lt; <a href="http://postproc.in">postproc.in</a> to obtain the monthly means for the CHE files.</div><div><br></div><div>I had a simple problem which you helped me solve with the .ctl file, but now I realised that where it should have several variables (in particular 4 tracers; refer to q file 2 below), it has much less (in particular 1 tracer, refer to q file 1 below). Is this a simple problem of fixing the .ctl file? or is this a problem from the &#39;average&#39; program? </div>
