try this -- the example you provided did not work, so I had to hack
together an example:
library(chron);library(zoo)
date<- seq(as.Date("1990-01-01"), as.Date("2000-12-31"), by = 1)
obs<-rnorm(length(date), mean = 10, sd = 2.5)
monthly<- function(date) as.Date(as.yearmon(date))
obs <- tapply(obs, monthly(date), sum)
obs.yr <- split(obs, substring(names(obs), 1, 4))
for (i in names(obs.yr)){
cat("Observations for Year", i, '\n')
print(cbind(obs.yr[[i]]))
cat("Total for Year", i, sum(obs.yr[[i]]), '\n\n')
}
