Derived climate variables built with xarray.
Project description
xclim: Climate indices computations 
xclim is a library of functions to compute climate indices from observations or model simulations. It is built using xarray and can benefit from the parallelization handling provided by dask. Its objective is to make it as simple as possible for users to compute indices from large climate datasets and for scientists to write new indices with very little boilerplate.
For example, the following would compute monthly mean temperature from daily mean temperature:
import xclim
import xarray as xr
ds = xr.open_dataset(filename)
tg = xclim.icclim.TG(ds.tas, freq='YS')For applications where meta-data and missing values are important to get right, xclim provides a class for each index that validates inputs, checks for missing values, converts units and assigns metadata attributes to the output. This also provides a mechanism for users to customize the indices to their own specifications and preferences.
xclim currently provides over 50 indices related to mean, minimum and maximum daily temperature, daily precipitation, streamflow and sea ice concentration.

0.25.0 (2021-03-31)
Announcements
Deprecation: Release 0.25.0 of xclim will be the last version to explicitly support Python3.6 and xarray<0.17.0.
New indicators

New bias-adjustment method: PrincipalComponent (based on Hnilica et al. 2017 https://doi.org/10.1002/joc.4890).
Internal changes
Small changes in the output of indices.run_length.rle.
0.24.0 (2021-03-01)
New indicators
days_over_precip_thresh, fraction_over_precip_thresh, liquid_precip_ratio, warm_spell_duration_index, all from eponymous indices.
maximum_consecutive_warm_days from indice maximum_consecutive_tx_days.
Breaking changes
Numerous changes to xclim.core.calendar.percentile_doy:
per now accepts a sequence as well as a scalar and as such the output has a percentiles axis.
per argument is now expected to between 0-100 (not 0-1).
input data must have a daily (or coarser) time frequency.
Change in unit handling paradigm for indices, which as a result will lead to some indices returning values with different units. Note that related Indicator objects remain unchanged and will return units consistent with CF Convention. If you are concerned with code stability, please use Indicator objects. The change was necessary to resolve inconsistencies with xarray’s keep_attrs=True context.
Indice functions now return output units that preserve consistency with input units. That is, feeding inputs in Celsius will yield outputs in Celsius instead of casting to Kelvin. In all cases the dimensionality is preserved.
Indice functions now accept non-daily data, but daily frequency is assumed by default if the frequency cannot be inferred.
Removed the explicitly-installed netCDF4 python library from the base installation, as this is never explicitly used (now only installed in the docs recipe for sdba documented example).
Removed xclim.core.checks, which was deprecated since v0.18.
New features and enhancements
Indicator now have docstrings generated from their metadata.
Units and fixed choices set are parsed from indice docstrings into Indicator.parameters.
Units of indices using the declare_units decorator are stored in indice.in_units and indice.out_units.
Changes to Indicator.format and Indicator.json to ensure the resulting json really is serializable.
Internal changes
Leave missing_options undefined in land.fit indicator to allow control via set_options.
Modified xclim.core.calendar.percentile_doy to improve performance.
New xclim.core.calendar.compare_offsets for comparing offset strings.
New xclim.indices.generic.get_op to retrieve a function from a string representation of that operator.
The CI pipeline has been migrated from Travis CI to GitHub Actions. All stages are still built using tox.
Indice functions must always set the units (the declare_units decorator does no check anymore).
New xclim.core.units.rate2amout to convert rates like precipitation to amounts.
xclim.core.units.pint2cfunits now removes ‘ * ‘ symbols and changes Δ° to delta_deg.
New xclim.core.units.to_agg_units and xclim.core.units.infer_sampling_units for unit handling involving aggregation operations along the time dimension.
Added an indicators API page to the docs and links to there from the Climate Indicators page.
Bug fixes
The unit handling change resolved a bug that prevented the use of xr.set_options(keep_attrs=True) with indices.

Bug fixes
Fixed a bug in indices.run_length.lazy_indexing that occurred with 1D coords and 0D indexes when using the dask backend.
Fixed a bug with default frequency handling affecting fit indicator.
Set missing method to ‘skip’ for freq_analysis indicator.
Fixed a bug in ensembles._ens_align_datasets that occurred when inputs are .nc filepaths but files lack a time dimension.
Internal changes

Breaking changes
xclim.subset has been deprecated and now relies on clisops to perform specialized spatio-temporal subsetting. Install with pip install xclim[gis] in order to retain the same functionality.
The python library pandoc is no longer listed as a docs build requirement. Documentation still requires a current version of pandoc binaries installed at system-level.
ANUCLIM indices have seen their input_freq parameter renamed to src_timestep for clarity.
A clean-up and harmonization of the indicators metadata has changed some of the indicator identifiers, long_names, abstracts and titles. xclim.atmos.drought_code and fire_weather_indexes now have indentifiers “dc” and “fwi” (lowercase version of the previous identifiers).
xc.indices.run_length.run_length_with_dates becomes xc.indices.run_length.season_length. Its argument date is now optional and the default changes from “07-01” to None.
xc.indices.consecutive_frost_days becomes xc.indices.maximum_consecutive_frost_days.
Changed the history indicator output attribute to xclim_history in order to respect CF conventions.
New indicators
atmos.max_pr_intensity acting on hourly data.
atmos.wind_vector_from_speed, also the wind_speed_from_vector now also returns the “wind from direction”.

New features and enhancements
sdba.loess submodule implementing LOESS smoothing tools used in sdba.detrending.LoessDetrend.
xclim now depends on clisops for subsetting, offloading several heavy GIS dependencies. This improves maintainability and reduces the size of a “vanilla” xclim installation considerably.
New generic.parametric_quantile function taking parameters estimated by generic.fit as an input.
Add support for using probability weighted moments method in generic.fit function. Requires the lmoments3 package, which is not included in dependencies because it is unmaintained. Install manually if needed.
Implemented _fit_start utility function providing initial conditions for statistical distribution parameters estimation, reducing the likelihood of poor fits.
Added support for indicators based on hourly (1H) inputs, and a first hourly indicator called max_pr_intensity returning hourly precipitation intensity.
Indicator instances can be retrieved through their class with the get_instance() class method. This allows the use of xclim.core.indicator.registry as an instance registry.
Indicators now have a realm attribute. It must be given when creating indicators outside xclim.
Better docstring parsing for indicators: parameters description, annotation and default value are accessible in the json output and Indicator.parameters.
New command line interface xclim for simple indicator computing tasks.
New sdba.processing.jitter_over_thresh for variables with a upper bound.
Added op parameter to xclim.indices.daily_temperature_range to allow resample reduce operations other than mean
core.formatting.AttrFormatter (and thus, locale dictionaries) can now use glob-like pattern for matching values to translate.
Bug fixes
The ICCLIM module was identified as icclim in the documentation but the module available under ICCLIM. Now icclim == ICCLIM and ICCLIM will be deprecated in a future release.
Internal changes
xclim.subset now attempts to load and expose the functions of clisops.core.subset. This is an API workaround preserving backwards compatibility.
Code styling now conforms to the latest release of black (v0.20.8).
New IndicatorRegistrar class that takes care of adding indicator classes and instances to the appropriate registries. Indicator now inherits from it.
0.19.0 (2020-08-18)
Breaking changes
Refactoring of the Indicator class. The cfprobe method has been renamed to cfcheck and the validate method has been renamed to datacheck. More importantly, instantiating Indicator creates a new subclass on the fly and stores it in a registry, allowing users to subclass existing indicators easily. The algorithm for missing values is identified by its registered name, e.g. “any”, “pct”, etc, along with its missing_options.
xclim now requires xarray >= 0.16, ensuring that xclim.sdba is fully functional.
The dev requirements now include xdoctest – a rewrite of the standard library module, doctest.
xclim.core.locales.get_local_attrs now uses the indicator’s class name instead of the indicator itself and no longer accepts the fill_missing keyword. Behaviour is now the same as passing False.
Indicator.cf_attrs is now a list of dictionaries. Indicator.json puts all the metadata attributes in the key “outputs” (a list of dicts). All variable metadata (names in Indicator._cf_names) might be strings or lists of strings when accessed as object attributes.
Passing doctests are now strictly enforced as a build requirement in the Travis CI testing ensemble.
New features and enhancements
New ensembles.kkz_reduce_ensemble method to select subsets of an ensemble based on the KKZ algorithm.
Create new Indicator Daily, Daily2D subclasses for indicators using daily input data.
The Indicator class now supports outputing multiple indices for the same inputs.
xclim.core.units.declare_units now works with indices outputting multiple DataArrays.

Bug fixes
Fix generic.fit dimension ordering. This caused errors when “time” was not the first dimension in a DataArray.
Internal changes
datachecks.check_daily now uses xr.infer_freq.
Indicator subclasses Tas, Tasmin, Tasmax, Pr and Streamflow now inherit from Daily.
Indicator subclasses TasminTasmax and PrTas now inherit from Daily2D.
Docstring style now enforced using the pydocstyle with numpy doctsring conventions.
Doctests are now performed for all docstring Examples using xdoctest. Failing examples must be explicitly skipped otherwise build will now fail.
Indicator methods update_attrs and format are now classmethods, attrs to update must be passed.
Indicators definitions without an accompanying translation (presently French) will cause build failures.
Major refactoring of the internal machinery of Indicator to support multiple outputs.
0.18.0 (2020-06-26)
Optimization options for xclim.sdba : different grouping for the normalization steps of DQM and save training or fitting datasets to temporary files.

Added indicator first_day_below and run length helper first_run_after_date.
Added ANUCLIM model climate indices mappings.
Renamed areacella to areacello in sea ice tests.
Sea ice extent and area outputs now have units of m2 to comply with CF-Convention.
Split checks.py into cfchecks.py, datachecks.py and missing.py. This change will only affect users creating custom indices using utilities previously located in checks.py.
Changed signature of daily_freeze_thaw_cycles, daily_temperature_range, daily_temperature_range_variability and extreme_temperature_range to take (tasmin, tasmax) instead of (tasmax, tasmin) and match signature of other similar multivariate indices.
Added FromContext subclass of MissingBase to have a uniform API for missing value operations.
Remove logging commands that captured all xclim warnings. Remove deprecated xr.set_options calls.
0.17.0 (2020-05-15)
Added support for operations on dimensionless variables (units = ‘1’).
Moved xclim.locales to xclim.core.locales in a batch of internal changes aimed to removed most potential cyclic imports cases.
Missing checks and input validation refactored with addition of custom missing class registration (xclim.core.checks.register_missing_method) and simple validation method decorator (xclim.core.checks.check).
New xclim.set_options context to control the missing checks, input validation and locales.
New xclim.sdba module for statistical downscaling and bias-adjustment of climate data.
Added convert_calendar and interp_calendar to help in the conversion between calendars.
Added at_least_n_valid function, identifying null calculations based on minimum threshold.
