The package provides readers and converters for the Land Surface Diagnostics within the Modern-Era Retrospective analysis for Research and Applications version 2 (MERRA-2). MERRA-2 is a NASA atmospheric reanalysis integrating satellite data assimilation and aims at historical climate analyses. MERRA-2 covers Land Surface Diagnostics for the period 1980-present at 0.5 ° x 0.625 ° spatial- and 1-hourly temporal-resolution.

The structure of the package is as follows:

  • grid.py : implements the asymmetrical GMAO 0.5 x 0.625 grid

  • interface.py : classes for reading a single image, image stacks and time series

  • reshuffle.py : provides a command line utility for reshuffling a stack of 1-hourly sampled native images to time series format with an arbitraty temporal sampling between 1-hour and daily

  • download.py : command line utility for downloading MERRA-2 data from the NASA GES DISC datapool
