climatologyMapMassFluxes¶
An analysis task for comparison of global maps of surface mass fluxes. No observational products are currently available.
Component and Tags:
component: ocean
tags: climatology, horizontalMap, fluxes, mass
Configuration Options¶
The following configuration options are available for climatologyMapMassFluxes and similarly for climatologyMapHeatFluxes:
[climatologyMapMassFluxes]
# colormap for model
colormapNameResult = balance
# whether the colormap is indexed or continuous
colormapTypeResult = continuous
# color indices into colormapName for filled contours
colormapIndicesResult = [0, 40, 80, 110, 140, 170, 200, 230, 255]
# colormap levels/values for contour boundaries
colorbarLevelsResult = [-2, 0, 2, 6, 10, 16, 22, 26, 28, 32]
# the type of norm used in the colormap
normTypeResult = symLog
# A dictionary with keywords for the norm
normArgsResult = {'vmin': -1e-3, 'vmax': 1e-3, 'linthresh': 1e-6}
# colormap for differences
colormapNameDifference = balance
# whether the colormap is indexed or continuous
colormapTypeDifference = continuous
# color indices into colormapName for filled contours
colormapIndicesDifference = [0, 28, 57, 85, 113, 128, 128, 142, 170, 198, 227, 255]
# colormap levels/values for contour boundaries
colorbarLevelsDifference = [-5, -3, -2, -1, -0.1, 0, 0.1, 1, 2, 3, 5]
# the type of norm used in the colormap
normTypeDifference = symLog
# A dictionary with keywords for the norm
normArgsDifference = {'vmin': -1e-3, 'vmax': 1e-3, 'linthresh': 1e-6}
variables = ['riverRunoffFlux', 'iceRunoffFlux', 'snowFlux', 'rainFlux', 'evaporationFlux', 'seaIceFreshWaterFlux', 'landIceFreshwaterFlux']
seasons = ['JFM', 'JAS', 'ANN']
# comparison grid(s) on which to plot analysis
comparisonGrids = ['latlon', 'arctic', 'antarctic']
By default, a “preindustrial” climatology is computed for comparison with the
model results. For simulations covering a different time period, the range of
years (obsStartYear
and obsEndYear
) should be updated.
