Scripts to reproduce figures for the paper

The impact of the explicit representation of convection on the climate of a tidally locked planet in global stretched-mesh simulations.

Repository contents

Notebooks and Python scripts are in the src/scripts/ directory, while the figures themselves are in the src/figures/ directory.

How to reproduce figures

Set up environment

To recreate the required environment for running Python code, follow these steps. (Skip the first two steps if you have Jupyter with nb_conda_kernels installed already.)

1. Install conda or mamba, e.g. using miniforge.
2. Install necessary packages to the base environment. Make sure you are installing them from the conda-forge channel.

mamba install -c conda-forge jupyterlab nb_conda_kernels conda-lock

3. Git-clone or download this repository to your computer.
4. In the command line, navigate to the downloaded folder, e.g.

cd /path/to/downloaded/repository

5. Create a conda environment from the lock file.

conda-lock install --name stretched_mesh_env conda-lock.yml

Open the code

1. Start the Jupyter Lab, for example from the command line (from the base environment).

jupyter lab

2. Open notebooks in the stretched_mesh_env environment start running the code.
