esem.utils.ensemble_collocate

esem.utils.ensemble_collocate(ensemble, observations, member_dimension='job')

Efficiently collocate (interpolate) many ensemble members on to a set of (un-gridded) observations

Note

This function requires both Iris and CIS to be installed

Parameters

• ensemble (GriddedData) – The ensemble of (model) samples to interpolate on to the observations

• observations (UngriddedData) – The observations on to which the observations will be sampled

• member_dimension (str) – The name of the dimension which represents the ensemble members in ensemble

Returns

col_ensemble (iris.cube.Cube) – The ensemble values interpolated on to the observation locations, with the ensemble members along the leading dimension.
