Notes

For each input dataset, an individual plot is created. This diagnostic supports arbitrary variables of arbitrary datasets.

psyplot_func: str: Function used to plot the data. Must be a function of psyplot.project.plot. Run python -c "from psyplot.project import plot; print(plot.show_plot_methods())" to get a list of all currently supported plotting functions (make sure to run this command in your ESMValTool environment).
psyplot_kwargs: dict, optional: Optional keyword arguments for the plotting function given by psyplot_func. String arguments can include facets in curly brackets which will be derived from the corresponding dataset, e.g., clabel: '{long_name} [{units}]', title: '{long_name} Climatology of {dataset} ({start_year}-{end_year})'.
savefig_kwargs: dict, optional: Optional keyword arguments for matplotlib.pyplot.savefig(). By default, uses bbox_inches: tight, dpi: 300, orientation: landscape.
seaborn_settings: dict, optional: Options for seaborn.set_theme() (affects all plots).
