oggm.core.massbalance.LinearMassBalance#
- class oggm.core.massbalance.LinearMassBalance(ela_h, grad=3.0, max_mb=None)[source]#
Constant mass balance as a linear function of altitude.
- Attributes
- ela_h: float
the equilibrium line altitude (units: [m])
- grad: float
the mass balance gradient (unit: [mm w.e. yr-1 m-1])
- max_mb: float
Cap the mass balance to a certain value (unit: [mm w.e. yr-1])
temp_bias
Change the ELA following a simple rule: + 1K -> ELA + 150 m
- __init__(ela_h, grad=3.0, max_mb=None)[source]#
Initialize.
- Parameters
- ela_h: float
Equilibrium line altitude (units: [m])
- grad: float
Mass balance gradient (unit: [mm w.e. yr-1 m-1])
- max_mb: float
Cap the mass balance to a certain value (unit: [mm w.e. yr-1])
Methods
__init__
(ela_h[, grad, max_mb])Initialize.
get_annual_mb
(heights, **kwargs)Like self.get_monthly_mb(), but for annual MB.
get_ela
([year])Compute the equilibrium line altitude for a given year.
get_monthly_mb
(heights, **kwargs)Monthly mass balance at given altitude(s) for a moment in time.
get_specific_mb
([heights, widths, fls, year])Specific mb for this year and a specific glacier geometry.
is_year_valid
(year)Checks if a given date year be simulated by this model.
Attributes
temp_bias
Change the ELA following a simple rule: + 1K -> ELA + 150 m
