clida

This is a collection of scripts for downloading weather and climate data and preprocessing them accordingly.

Set-up

Install required packages

Create environment and install required packages

    mamba create -n clidaEnv
    mamba env update -n clidaEnv -f condaenv.yml

Download ERA5

ERA5 data are downloaded via the Climate Data Store (CDS) Application Program Interface (API). Follow the steps on their how-to-api.

How-to use the scripts

  1. Copy the dwnld_config_template.py to dwnld_config.py
  2. Change the "raw_data_dir" in the dwnld_config.py to your preferred location
  3. Select only the part in the config which you need and adapt it to your needs
  4. Run your download_<product>.py with python. Keep in mind that the dwnld_config.py is in the same directory

To run scripts on the slurm queueing system, I've provided a sample script in example_scripts/submit_to_slurm.sbatch which can be started using sbatch.

TODO

  • WeatherBench
  • CPCP, TRMM

Contributing

  • all final output files should be saved to climate_data/[model or data product name]
  • all final output files should be in NetCDF format
  • all final output files should be in a one-file-per-variable format, with the variable in the file called the same as the [variable shorthand] in the filename (below)

Furthermore, please document your code as well as you can. Additionally, when you can, add links to documentation on how to access the datasets, or any additional tools that are needed (for example, ECMWF's API).
