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:
gdir : oggm.GlacierDirectory

the glacier directory to process

Notes

Files writen to the glacier directory:
climate_info.json
Some information (dictionary) about the climate data and the mass balance parameters for this glacier.
climate_monthly.nc
The monthly climate timeseries stored in a netCDF file.
