I've transferred some emails here and hope further discussion will follow here.

Hi PD, cc: P

I mentioned CMORising notebooks earlier. Piotr has thrown them into gists;

(one of the above is a code library).

Theses were specifically for tidying up data for the WMO decadal forecasting centre and would need adapting for more general use, but it is a good way of providing an example.

Piotr hasn’t touched ocean variables in this form, so we still need to dig out the function call list for the 2D lat-lon variable production you asked about earlier in the week.

Adding something like this to the CMOR documentation or repo might be a nice way of making it a lot easier for people. If an appropriate set of notebooks could be constructed for Input4MIPs and Obs4MIPs then there might be less leaning on specific individuals for technical work/support.

Thanks M, this is excellent – just looping in C, KT and PG.

The NEMO ocean I, j mapping would be really useful if that could be found, we are hoping to find a python template that we can use to write some non-lat/lon data, and the MOHC NEMO example looks like the kind of output we wanted to target.

Thanks again for this!

FYI: P has been working on a 2D lat lon equivalent (i.e. CMIP6 Omon/tos) and will share when completed.

I would strongly recommend adapting these to act as demonstrations of how you can use CMOR in an adhoc fashion, and I think this route might well be simple enough that you could point obs4MIPs and input4MIPs contributors at them as a relatively simple DIY light weight CMORizer.

Hi all,

We are just checking in to see if there might be any progress with this. We don’t require anything polished – we can do that – just a clear-cut example of the few critical lines of CMOR code so that we can be confident it providing documentation for obs4MIPs data providers.

Many thanks,
PG
