mpas_tools.viz.transect.interp_mpas_horiz_to_transect_nodes

mpas_tools.viz.transect.interp_mpas_horiz_to_transect_nodes(ds_transect, da)[source]

Interpolate a 2D (nCells) MPAS DataArray to transect nodes, linearly interpolating fields between the closest neighboring cells

Parameters:

ds_transect (xr.Dataset) – A dataset that defines an MPAS transect, the results of calling find_spherical_transect_cells_and_weights() or find_planar_transect_cells_and_weights()
da (xr.DataArray) – An MPAS 2D field with dimensions nCells` (possibly among others)

Returns:

da_nodes (xr.DataArray) – The data array interpolated to transect nodes with dimensions nNodes (in addition to whatever dimensions were in da besides nCells)
