How can I synchronize nan across dimensions of a matrix?

How can I set all elements that are nan in one dimension also nan in another dimension?
My example: I have a 3d-matrix A of size(A)
ans = 34168 30 13
Let this any model output for e.g. 34168 grid points g in a map, 30 years y and 13 models m. Now I need to set all values of a given model m to nan, if the value from any other model m at that position is nan. In other words: I need to set A(g,y,1) nan if A(g,y,2) is nan, A(g,y,1) nan if A(g,y,3) is nan...and that for all g,y, and m.
Now I have a loop which should do the job, but it seems that 16 GB RAM are not enough, since it takes forever:
A=rand(34168,30,13); %just for illustration
b=randi(numel(A),1000000,1);
A(b)=nan; %set random numbers to nan
m=1;
for m=1:size(A,3)
[row{m} col{m}]=find(isnan(A(:,:,m)));
end
tic
m=1;
for m=m:size(A,3)
n=1;
for n=n:size(A,3)
disp(num2str([m n]))
A(row{n},col{n},m)=nan;
end
end
toc
%After synchronization the number of nan in each m should be the same, e.g. test through
length(find(isnan(A(:,:,1))))==length(find(isnan(A(:,:,2))))
I know, these are a lot of nan (>10 % of elements), but there should be a way to make this way faster.
Any help and hint is greatly appreciated.
Cheers,
