An ERA5 Aggregation Workflow

A Quarto Manual adaptation of a real ERA5 download and aggregation project

Overview

This example adapts a real ERA5 download and aggregation workflow into a multi-page Quarto Manual.

Compared with the simple staging example, this manual has more moving parts:

• credentials for an external data service;
• repeated parameter choices for time, place, and variables;
• large downloaded artifacts;
• downstream aggregation steps that depend on earlier outputs.

Quarto Manuals become useful in these scenarios: the workflow is repetitive and important, but still too context-specific to collapse into a single rigid command-line wrapper.
