oggm.tasks.process_custom_climate_data

oggm.tasks.process_custom_climate_data(gdir)[source]

Processes and writes the climate data from a user-defined climate file.

The input file must have a specific format (see https://github.com/OGGM/oggm-sample-data test-files/histalp_merged_hef.nc for an example).

This is the way OGGM used to do it for HISTALP before it got automatised.

Parameters

the glacier directory to process

Notes

Files writen to the glacier directory:
climate_info.pkl

Some information (dictionary) about the climate data and the mass balance parameters for this glacier.

climate_monthly.nc
