Analysis of Forcing Fields

mom6_tools.MOM6grid returns an object with MOM6 grid data.

mom6_tools.latlon_analysis has a collection of tools used to perform spatial analysis (e.g., time averages and spatial mean).

The goal of this notebook is the following:

  1. serve as an example of how to post-process CESM/MOM6 output;

  2. create time averages of forcing fields;

  3. create time-series of globally-averaged forcing fields;

  4. compare model results vs. observations (TODO);

  5. compare model results vs. another model results (TODO).
