@jhamman , that partially solves what I mean, I can probably turn my data into dask arrays with some difficulty; but really I was hoping for something like the following: ds = xr.Dataset(coords={'b': np.arange(-4, 6, 0.005), 'l': np.arange(150, 72, -0.005), 'v': np.arange(58722.24288, -164706.4225401, -8.2446e2)}, arr = ds.create_new_zero_array(dims=['l', 'b', 'v']) arr[0:10, :, :] = 1 and expect to be able to set the values of the new variable in the same way that you can with the equivalent zarr array. I can probably get around this by setting the values with da.zeros, finding the zarr array in the dataset, and then setting its values.
