Example recipes
Overview
These are example recipes calling example diagnostic scripts.
The recipe examples/recipe_python.yml produces time series plots of global mean temperature and for the temperature in Amsterdam. It also produces a map of global temperature in January 2020.
The recipe examples/recipe_extract_shape.yml produces a map of the mean temperature in the Elbe catchment over the years 2000 to 2002. Some example shapefiles for use with this recipe are available here, make sure to download all files with the same name but different extensions.
The recipe examples/recipe_julia.yml produces a map plot with the mean temperature over the year 1997 plus a number that is configurable from the recipe.
The recipe examples/recipe_decadal.yml showcases how the timerange
tag
can be used to load datasets belonging to the DCPP activity. Produces timeseries
plots comparing the global mean temperature of a DCPP dataset with an observational
dataset.
For detailed instructions on obtaining input data, please refer to Obtaining input data. However, in case you just quickly want to run through the example, you can use the following links to obtain the data from ESGF:

User settings in recipe
Script
examples/diagnostic.py
Required settings for script
quickplot: plot_type
: which of theiris.quickplot
functions to use. Arguments that are accepted by these functions can also be specified here, e.g.cmap
. Preprocessors need to be configured such that the resulting data matches the plot type, e.g. a timeseries or a map.
Optional settings for script
write_netcdf
:true
(default) orfalse
. This can be used to disable writing the results to netcdf files.
Script
examples/diagnostic.jl
Required settings for script
parameter1
: example parameter, this number will be added to the mean (over time) value of the input data.
Variables
tas (atmos, monthly, longitude, latitude, time)
