compass.landice.tests.ismip7_calibration.ais.melt_model.basin_mean_tf(tf_draft, area, floating, basin)[source]

Area-weighted mean thermal forcing per basin, mapped back onto cells.

This is what MALI’s ISMIP6 non-local form computes internally, and it must be area-weighted: on a 4-20 km mesh a plain mean is wrong.

Parameters:
Returns:

mean_tf (xarray.DataArray) – The basin mean, broadcast back onto every cell
