(gdir, glen_a=None, fs=None, write=True, filesuffix='')[source]¶ Compute the glacier thickness along the flowlines
More or less following Farinotti et al., (2009).
Parameters: - gdir :
oggm.GlacierDirectory
the glacier directory to process
- glen_a : float
glen’s creep parameter A
- fs : float
sliding parameter
- write: bool
default behavior is to compute the thickness and write the results in the pickle. Set to False in order to spare time during calibration.
- filesuffix : str
add a suffix to the output file
Notes
- Files writen to the glacier directory:
- inversion_output.pkl
- List of dicts containing the output data from the inversion.
