Example for Plotting a Greenland Ice Sheet Model
Beginnings of a python package for working with the GSFC and ISMIP6 Ice Sheet Models
Example Jupyter Notebook – Plot Uploaded Ice Sheet Model for Greenland
To use the example, a number of python packages must be installed, including:
* numpy – http://www.numpy.org/ * xarray – http://xarray.pydata.org/en/stable/ * netcdf4-python – https://unidata.github.io/netcdf4-python/ * matplotlib – https://matplotlib.org * cartopy – https://scitools.org.uk/cartopy/docs/latest/
At the moment, these must be installed manually, as this toolkit has not been packaged as a standalone module.
This module has been tested for Python 2.5.1 and Python 3.6.5 installed via Anaconda.
Note: On VHub, currently the required xarray, netcdf4 and cartopy packages are installed for Python 2.5.1 only.
The example notebook loads two datasets:
* GIS Model `lithk_GIS_asmb.nc` (available upon request) * Any uploaded GIS Ice Sheet Model
