pyremap.descriptor.MpasMeshDescriptor¶

class pyremap.descriptor.MpasMeshDescriptor(fileName, meshName=None, vertices=False)[source]¶

A class for describing an MPAS cell mesh (which also supports non-conservative remapping from vertices)

Variables:

vertices (bool) – Whether the mapping is to or from vertices instead of corners (for non-conservative remapping)
fileName (str) – The path of the file containing the MPAS mesh

__init__(fileName, meshName=None, vertices=False)[source]¶

Constructor stores the file name

Parameters:

fileName (str) – The path of the file containing the MPAS mesh
meshName (str, optional) – The name of the MPAS mesh (e.g. 'oEC60to30' or 'oRRS18to6'). If not provided, the data set in fileName must have a global attribute meshName that will be used instead.
vertices (bool, optional) – Whether the mapping is to or from vertices instead of corners (for non-conservative remapping)

Methods

`__init__`(fileName[, meshName, vertices])	Constructor stores the file name
`to_esmf`(esmfFileName)	Create an ESMF mesh file for the mesh
`to_scrip`(scripFileName)	Given an MPAS mesh file, create a SCRIP file based on the mesh.
