I want to calculate the mean of the soil moisture satellite data ,i have daily based data of one year with size 1440*720,and how to calculate the mean? I am confused to find

sm_mean = nanmean(:,:,3)

Answer 1

[KSSV]

sm_mean = nanmean(data,'all')

Demo

A = rand(3,3,3) ;
for i = 1:3
    mean(A(:,:,i),'all')
end

ans = 0.5233

ans = 0.4704

ans = 0.4034

when i try this ie,

filename = dir('*nc') it shows the all nc datas

data = 'path of folder which contains all 30 days datas'

and i try to find the mean of 30days data of size 1440*720 ie

for i= 1:length(data)

sm.mean(i) = nanmean(:,:,i)

end

it doesnt works..shows 'nanmean is not recommended in matlab ,use mean instead of nanmean' and shows some errors.
