pyremap.descriptor.MpasCellMeshDescriptor

class pyremap.descriptor.MpasCellMeshDescriptor(filename, mesh_name=None)[source]

A class for describing an MPAS cell mesh

Variables:

filename (Optional[str]) – The path of the file containing the MPAS mesh
mesh_name (Optional[str]) – The name of the MPAS mesh
history (Optional[str]) – The history attribute written to SCRIP files

__init__(filename, mesh_name=None)[source]

Constructor stores the file name

Parameters:

filename (str) – The path of the file containing the MPAS mesh
mesh_name (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 mesh_name that will be used instead.

Methods

`__init__`(filename[, mesh_name])	Constructor stores the file name
`mesh_name_from_attr`(ds)	Get the mesh name from the dataset attributes if not already set
`to_scrip`(scrip_filename[, expand_dist, ...])	Create a SCRIP file from the MPAS mesh.
`write_netcdf`(ds, filename)	Write the mesh to a NetCDF file
