merge_glacier_tasks
(gdirs, main_rgi_id=None, return_all=False, buffer=None, **kwargs)[source]¶ Shortcut function: run all tasks to merge tributaries to a main glacier
Parameters: - gdirs : list of
oggm.GlacierDirectory
all glaciers, main and tributary. Preprocessed and initialised
- main_rgi_id: str
RGI ID of the main glacier of interest. If None is provided merging will start based uppon the largest glacier
- return_all : bool
if main_rgi_id is given and return_all = False: only the main glacier is returned if main_rgi_is given and return_all = True, the main glacier and every remaining glacier from the initial gdirs list is returned, possible merged as well.
- buffer : float
buffer around a flowline to first better find an overlap with another flowline. And second assure some distance between the lines at a junction. Will default to cfg.PARAMS[‘kbuffer’].
- kwargs: keyword argument for the recursive merging
Returns: - merged_gdirs: list of all merged
oggm.GlacierDirectory
- gdirs : list of
