aeolus.io.create_dummy_cube(nlat: int | None = None, nlon: int | None = None, n_res: int | None = None, endgame: bool | None = True, grid_type: str | None = 'a', pm180: bool | None = False) Cube[source]

Create a dummy 2D cube with given resolution compatible with the UM grid.

Parameters:
  • nlat (int, optional) – Number of points in latitude. Not needed if n_res is given.

  • nlon (int, optional) – Number of points in longitude. Not needed if n_res is given.

  • n_res (int, optional) – N-notation resolution. If given, nlat and nlon are calculated automatically.

  • endgame (bool, optional) – Use ENDGame grid. If True, “A” grid starts at lat=-90+dlat/2, lon=dlon/2. If False, “A” grid starts at lat=-90, lon=0. ENDGame’s “A” grid is NewDyn “B” grid and vice versa.

  • grid_type (str, optional) –

    Type of the UM grid.
    • A is main UM grid

    • B is staggered lorenz wind grid

    • Cu is staggered U wind grid

    • Cv is staggered V wind grid

  • pm180 (bool, optional) – Use -/+180 instead of 0 to 360 for the longitude span.

Returns:

cube – A dummy 2D cube of zeros.

Return type:

iris.cube.Cube

Get a list of files with timestamps >= than start in a directory.

aeolus.io.load_conservation_diag(fnames: Sequence[Path | str], convert_to_iris: bool | None = True, drop_duplicates: bool | None = True) DataFrame | CubeList[source]

Load UM conservation diagnostics from a series of text files.

aeolus.io.load_data(files: Sequence, structured: bool | None = False) CubeList[source]

Use iris.load with optional structured loading for PP files.

Load cubelists from multiple directories and merge.

aeolus.io.load_vert_lev(path_to_file: Path, lev_type: str | None = 'theta') array[source]

Read data from the UM vertical levels file.

Parameters:
  • path_to_file (pathlib.Path) – Full path to the vertical levels file.

  • lev_type (str, optional) – What levels to return: “theta” or “rho”.

Returns:

levs – Array of height levels.

Return type:

numpy.array

aeolus.io.save_cubelist(cubelist: CubeList, path: Path, **aux_attrs: Any | None) None[source]

Save a cubelist w/o the planet_conf container to a file.

Parameters:
  • cubelist (iris.cube.CubeList) – Cube list to write to disk.

  • path (str or pathlib.Path) – File path.

  • aux_attrs (dict, optional) – Dictionary of additional attributes to save with the cubes.
