WACCM/CAMChem regional download script

Hello,
I am trying to download daily WACCM file from NCAR data base https://www.acom.ucar.edu/waccm/DATA and each day file is over 8 GB, but I want to deal with only certain portion of globe which results in 500 MB of file, so I want to perform the hyperslab on remote server so that only 500 MB file is downloaded. The program that I wrote is not able to that, it is downloading 8 GB global file on local machine and then performing hyperslab, which takes 9 hours daily.

The program I wrote : ncks -C -H -d lat,-10.0,50.0 -d lon,50.0,120.0 https://www.acom.ucar.edu/waccm/DAT...eta02.forecast.002.cam.h3.2020-03-21-00000.nc -l ./ 20200321_WACCM.nc
Can you please help me, I have loaded nco 4.7.3-dap also, previously it was downloading using wget but after dap it is downloading normally, but everything is being downloaded on local machine, and I have no idea what to do.

So long story short, do you have a DAP URL for your dataset?

And if the answer is no, then is there any script available to download daily regional WACCM/CAM-CHEM boundary files directly from internet instead of placing an order and waiting for the link? I am asking this so that I can automate this part and try to do it in real-time basis.

Please help me, I am stuck here since last week, and have found no solutions as of yet.

Regards,

Shivang Agarwal
