Question

Definition of amalgamation in corporate accounting

Answer 1

This is fine for creating a DataArray -- but when I try to convert to a dataset (so I can write to netCDF), I get an error about 'ValueError: Coordinate objects must be 1-dimensional'

2) The second approach I've tried is taking my dataarray, casting it to a dataframe, setting the index to ['lat','lng', 'time'] and then going back to a dataset with xr.Dataset.from_dataframe(). I've tried this -- but it takes 20+ min before I kill the process.

Answer 2

Amalgamation is the combination of one or more companies into a new entity. An amalgamation is distinct from a mergerbecause neither of the combining companies survives as a legal entity; a completely new entity is formed to house the combined assets and liabilities of both companies. This sense of the term amalgamation has generally fallen out of popular use, and the terms "merger" or "consolidation " are often used instead.
