esgf-pyclient
ESGF PyClient is a Python package designed for interacting with the Earth System Grid Federation system.
This package contains API code for calling the legacy ESGF Search API from Python code. It may be used to access data that is only findable through the legacy ESGF Search API, such as CMIP5, CORDEX, and older obs4MIPs data.
You can try it online using Binder, or view the notebooks on NBViewer:
Please submit bugs and feature requests through the bug tracker on GitHub. Pull requests are always welcome.
Full documentation is available on ReadTheDocs or in the docs directory.
