Parcels v2.2.1: a Lagrangian Ocean Analysis tool for the petascale age
Parcels v2.2.1 builds upon previous versions of Parcels and fixes a number of bugs. Furthermore, it also adds the following features:
- Renaming
parcels.randomtoparcels.ParcelsRandom(#912). Note that this change is not backward-compatible, so update your code - Support for MITgcm output on C-grids where the U and V are on the west and north of the f-points (#897)
- Support for MOM5 output on B-grids, where the W-fields are given below the U and V-fields (#923)
- Support larger
ParticleSetsby changing Particle-ID type to int64 (#934) - Added a
depth_unitskeyword forFieldSet.from_pop()to support depth units in both 'm' and 'cm' (#857) - New tutorials on how to sample Fields and how to postprocess Parcels output (#915 and #929)
- Control over Cartopy feature options (coastline, land colour etc) in
plotTrajectoriesFile()(#939, thanks to @axnsantana) - Support for
math.nanand!=operators in JIT Kernels (#908) - Support for
applyConversion=Falsein Field Interpolation (#898) - Support to set the write status of a
Variableafter it's been created viaParticleFile.set_variable_write_status()(#892)
Plus a large number of minor bug fixes
