Description
Several users (@raj-kesavan, @richardotis, now myself) have wondered about how to concatenate xray Datasets with different variables.
With the current xray.concat
, you need to awkwardly create dummy variables filled with NaN
in datasets that don't have them (or drop mismatched variables entirely). Neither of these are great options -- concat
should have an option (the default?) to take care of this for the user.
This would also be more consistent with pd.concat
, which takes a more relaxed approach to matching dataframes with different variables (it does an outer join).
