Indicators are the main tool xclim provides to compute climate indices. In contrast to the function defined in xclim.indices, Indicators add a layer of health checks and metadata handling. Indicator objects are split into realms : atmos, land and seaIce.
Virtual modules are also inserted here. A normal installation of xclim comes with three virtual modules:
- :py:mod:`xclim.indicators.cf`, Indicators defined in cf-index-meta.
- :py:mod:`xclim.indicators.icclim`, Indicators defined by ECAD, as found in python package Icclim.
- :py:mod:`xclim.indicators.anuclim`, Indicators of the Australian National University's Fenner School of Environment and Society.
