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
- scipy
- matplotlib
- pandas
- netCDF4
- requests
It can be download by
$ git clone https://github.com/CYehLu/hurricane_tools.git
then install it 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 7 *.so files if the compilation is successful. Note that I only test it with gfortran compiler.
