rcatool 0.1

The Regional Climate Analysis Tool (RCAT), is a tool to calculate and visualize weather and climate model statistics.

Regional Climate Analysis Tool (RCAT)

RCAT is an analysis tool primarily developed for analysis of regional climate models, but may also be used for global models as well. It's purely written in Python where we aim for a modular code in a functional style. The purpose is to get an efficient and structured way of collaboration within our model developers but also for non pythonists that want to use the tool for standard climate data analysis.
