Parcels
[!WARNING] This branch contains version 4 of Parcels which is in active development. See
v3-supportto see v3 or the tags to browse stable versions of Parcels.
Parcels provides a set of Python classes and methods to create customisable particle tracking simulations using gridded output from (ocean) circulation models. Parcels can be used to track passive and active particulates such as water, plankton, plastic and fish.
Animation of virtual particles carried by ocean surface flow in the global oceans. The particles are advected with Parcels in data from the NEMO Ocean Model.
