oggm.tasks.compute_downstream_bedshape¶
- oggm.tasks.compute_downstream_bedshape(gdir)[source]¶
The bedshape obtained by fitting a parabola to the line’s normals.
Also computes the downstream’s altitude.
- Parameters
- gdir
oggm.GlacierDirectory
where to write the data
- gdir
Notes
- Files written to the glacier directory:
- downstream_line.pkl
A dictionary containing the downstream line geometry as well as the bed shape computed from a parabolic fit.
