Some calculation routines used in my tropical cyclone research.
For example:
- calculate axisymmetric wind field
- transform data from cartesian to polar coordinate
- interpolate data from model eta vertical level to pressure level
- find radaius of maximum wind
- calculate intertial stability
- fourier decomposition
- ...etc
I only test it in Linux environment.
This package depends on the following packages:
- numpy (1.19.5)
- scipy (1.4.1)
- matplotlib (3.3.1)
- pandas (1.0.3)
- netCDF4 (1.5.3)
- requests (2.14.2)
The versions in the parentheses are which I developed and tested. It may works well under different versions if these packages are not changed drastically.
It can be downloaded by
$ git clone https://github.com/CYehLu/hurricane_tools.git
and installed by pip
$ pip install -e ./hurricane_tools
Some functions will use Fortran subroutines defined in hurricane_tools/fortran/. The functions that will use Fortran subroutines are listed below:
hurricane_tools.coord_transform.XY2RT(..., intp='fortran')hurricane_tools.coord_transform.RT2XY(..., intp='fortran')hurricane_tools.coord_transform.Interpz3dhurricane_tools.getvar.GetVar- Any function with argument
intp='fortran'or the global variablehurricane_tools.config.INTERP_OPTION = 'fortran'
It is necessary to compile Fortran files before using these functions.
It can be compiled by the following steps:
$ cd hurricane_tools/hurricane_tools/fortran
$ make
It will generate seven *.so files if the compilation is successful. Note that I only test it with gfortran compiler.
