Tutorial Description
This Tutorial is to help the users to quick start on using e3sm diagnostics package (e3sm_diags).
E3sm_diags is a modern, Python-based diagnostics package which has been developed by the E3SM project for evaluating earth system models. The goal of this work is to build a comprehensive diagnostics software package as an essential E3SM tool to facilitate the diagnosis of the next generation earth system models. This package is embedded into the E3SM automated process flow to enable seamless transition between model run and diagnostics.
Modeled after NCAR’s atmosphere diagnostics package, this software is designed in a flexible, modular and object-oriented fashion, enabling users to manipulate different processes in a diagnostics workflow. Numerous configuration options for metrics computation (i.e., regridding options) and visualization (i.e., graphical backend, color maps, contour levels) are customizable. Built-in functions to generate derived variables and to select diagnostics regions are supported and can be easily expanded. An updated observational data repository is developed and maintained by this activity.
