Postprocessing ExoPlaSim Outputs

|
|
The Basics: Formats, Variables, and Math
|
|
----------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
As of ExoPlaSim 3.0.0, postprocessing can be done using the :py:mod:`exoplasim.pyburn <exoplasim.pyburn>`
|
|
module. This module exposes an API for setting the variables to be included in postprocessed output,
|
|
the horizontal mode in which to present them, and any additional math that should be performed, including
|
|
coordinate transformations, time-averaging, and standard deviations. ``pyburn`` also supports a large
|
|
range of output formats: netCDF, HDF5, NumPy's compressed ``.npz`` archives (the default), and plain-text
|
|
comma-separated value (CSV) files. The latter can be compressed individually with the ``gzip`` format,
|
|
tarballed, or tarballed and compressed (in the latter case with ``gzip``, ``lzma``, or ``bzip2``
|
|
compression types). Producing netCDF files requires that the netCDF4 python library be present (you
|
|
can install it with ``pip install netCDF4`` or at ExoPlaSim's install-time with ``pip install exoplasim[netCDF4]``). Similarly, producing HDF5 files requires the presence of the ``h5py`` Python
|
|
library, which can be installed via ``pip install h5py`` or, at ExoPlaSim's install time, with
|
|
``pip install exoplasim[HDF5]``. Support for both netCDF and HDF5 can be guaranteed at install-time
|
|
by combining them::
|
|
|
|
pip install exoplasim[netCDF4,HDF5]
|
|
|
|
Format
|
|
******
|
|
|
|
The choice of output format can be specified either when the postprocessor is called (if being used
|
|
manually), or as an argument to a :py:class:`Model <exoplasim.Model>` object, by simply providing the
|
|
file extension:
|
|
|

|
|

|
|

|
|
| | .tar |
|
|
+-----------------+----------------------+
|
|
|
|
Because the NumPy archive format does not support additional metadata arrays, metadata is stored
|
|
separately in a file using the ``_metadata.npz`` suffix. This file is typically a few tens of kiB.
|
|
|
|
CSV-type files will only contain 2D variable information, so the first N-1 dimensions will be flattened.
|
|
The original variable shape is included in the file header (prepended with a # character) as the first
|
|
items in a comma-separated list, with the first non-dimension item given as the '|||' placeholder. On
|
|
reading variables from these files, they should be reshaped according to these dimensions. This is true
|
|
even in tarballs (which contain CSV files). If read in by :py:func:`gcmt.load() <exoplasim.gcmt.load>`,
|
|
this reshaping will be done automatically.
|
|
|
|
Note that when using the :py:func:`pyburn.postprocess() <exoplasim.pyburn.postprocess>` function
|
|
directly, **a single file must be specified as the output file.** This is true even for formats
|
|
that produce a large number of files that don't get bound up together, such as ``.gz`` and ``.csv``,
|
|
which produce a folder containing one file per variable. The file you specify should have the pattern
|
|
``<subdirectory>.<extension>``. This file will not actually be created, but it will be parsed to
|
|
determine the desired output format. So, for example, to create an archive consisting of a folder full
|
|
of CSV files for the raw output file ``MOST.00127``, one would use ``MOST.00127.csv``. The surface
|
|
temperature variable, ``ts``, would then be found in ``MOST.00127/MOST.00127_ts.csv``.
|
|
**This same combined-format fictional filestring can be passed to**
|
|
:py:func:`gcmt.load(). <exoplasim.gcmt.load>` The object returned by that function will access the
|
|
data in the archive just as if it were a bound archive, such as a tarball, netCDF file, or HDF5 file.
|
|
|
|
A T21 model output with 10 vertical levels, 12 output times, all supported variables in grid
|
|
mode,and no standard deviation computation will have the following sizes for each format:

Variables
|
|
*********
|
|
|
|
Output variables can be chosen in multiple ways. Either a ``burn7``-style namelist can be provided,
|
|
containing a list of numeric variables codes (listed below), or a list can be passed directly, containing
|
|
a list of numeri codes, a list of strings of numeric codes, or a list of string variable keys, as
|
|
indicated in the leftmost-column of the table below.
|
|
|
|
Variable lists can be specified once for all outputs of a given type ('regular', 'snapshot', or
|
|
'highcadence'), with :py:func:`Model.cfgpostprocessor() <exoplasim.Model.cfgpostprocessor>`, or
|
|
for each model year with :py:func:`Model.postprocess() <exoplasim.Model.postprocess>`, or manually
|
|
outside of the ExoPlaSim :py:class:`Model <exoplasim.Model>` object, with
|
|
:py:func:`pyburn.postprocess <exoplasim.pyburn.postprocess>`.
|
|
|
|
Optionally, as advanced usage, a dictionary can be passed, with one member per variable (using the same
|
|
identification rules given above), and :py:func:`pyburn.dataset() <exoplasim.pyburn.dataset>`
|
|
keyword arguments specified for each variable. For example, to create an output file with two variables,
|
|
surface temperature and streamfunction, both on a horizontal grid, and the streamfunction
|
|
zonally-averaged and passed through physics filters::
|
|
|
|
{"ts":{"mode":"grid","zonal":False},
|
|
"stf":{"mode":"grid","zonal":True,"physfilter":True}}
|
|
|
|
This can be specified in one of 3 ways. Either it can be set for all outputs of a given type
|
|
('regular', 'snapshot', or 'highcadence') as a Model property:
|
|
|
|
>>> myModel.cfgpostprocessor(ftype="regular",extension=".nc",
|
|
>>> variables={"ts":{"mode":"grid","zonal":False},
|
|
>>> "stf":{"mode":"grid","zonal":True,"physfilter":True}})
|
|
|
|
Or it can be set each time :py:func:`Model.postprocess() <exoplasim.Model.postprocess>` is called:
|
|
|
|
>>> myModel.postprocess("MOST.00127",
|
|
>>> {"ts":{"mode":"grid","zonal":False},
|
|
>>> "stf":{"mode":"grid","zonal":True,"physfilter":True}},
|
|
>>> log="burnlog.00127",crashifbroken=True)
|
|
|
|
Or, finally, it can be specified directly to
|
|
:py:func:`pyburn.postprocess() <exoplasim.pyburn.postprocess>`:
|
|
|
|
>>> pyburn.postprocess("MOST.00127","MOST.00127.nc",logfile="burnlog.00127",
|
|
>>> variables={"ts":{"mode":"grid","zonal":False},
|
|
>>> "stf":{"mode":"grid","zonal":True,"physfilter":True}})
|
|
|
|
Postprocessing Math
|
|
*******************
|
|
|
|
``pyburn`` provides the ability to perform various mathematical operations on the data as part of
|
|
the postprocessing step.
|
|
|
|
Multiple horizontal modes are available (specified with the ``mode`` keyword), including a
|
|
Gaussian-spaced latitude-longitude grid (``"grid"``), spherical harmonics (``"spectral"``),
|
|
Fourier coefficients for each latitude (``"fourier"``), a latitude-longitude grid rotated such that the
|
|
"North" pole is at the substellar point of a sychronously-rotating planet, and the "equator" is the
|
|
terminator (``"synchronous"``), and Fourier coefficients computed along lines of constant longitude
|
|
(including the mirror component on the opposite hemisphere) in that rotated coordinate system
|
|
(``"syncfourier"``). Additionally, for output modes with discrete latitudes, variables can be
|
|
zonally-averaged (``zonal=True``).
|
|
|
|
ExoPlaSim performs some time-averaging on the fly (for "regular"-type outputs) to avoid overloading
|
|
I/O buffers and creating enormous raw output files, but the number of output times is still often
|
|
going to be more than you prefer for the postprocessed output data. The default configuration,
|
|
for example, produces 72 output timestamps per year. ``pyburn`` can perform time-averaging to reduce
|
|
this to e.g. monthly output, via the ``times`` keyword and the ``timeaveraging`` keyword. The former
|
|
specifies either the number of output times or the specific output times requested (as decimal fractions
|
|
of a model output's timeseries), while the latter is a boolean True/False flag. If specific output times
|
|
are requested or the number of requested outputs doesn't divide cleanly into the number of timestamps
|
|
in the raw output, ``pyburn`` can interpolate between timestamps using linear interpolation. No
|
|
extrapolation is performed, so you cannot request a time between e.g. the last output of the previous
|
|
year and the first output of the current year. Whether or not linear interpolation is used or
|
|
"nearest-neighbor" interpolation (which simply selects the timestamp closest to the target time) can
|
|
be set with the ``interpolatetimes`` keyword--if ``True``--linear interpolation will be used when
|
|
necessary. The minimum number of timestamps in the output file is 1; this corresponds to computing an
|
|
annual average.
|
|
|
|
Finally, ``pyburn`` brings the ability to compute the standard deviations of ExoPlaSim variables.
|
|
Enabling this with ``stdev=True`` will compute the standard deviation in one of two ways, depending
|
|
on whether time-averaging is being used. If time averages are being computed, then a standard deviation
|
|
will be computed **alongside** each average, and the each standard deviation variable (denoted with the
|
|
``_std`` suffix in the variable name, e.g. ``ts_std`` for the standard deviation of surface temperature)
|
|
will have the same number of timestamps as the time-averages. If time-averages are **not** being
|
|
computed, then the standard deviation of the entire file's timeseries will be computed, and there will
|
|
be one timestamp per standard deviation variable.
|
|
|
|
Reading Postprocessed Files
|
|
---------------------------
|
|
|
|
While postprocessed files are portable and can be read however you like, ExoPlaSim also provides a
|
|
native, format-agnostic way to access them via the :py:func:`gcmt.load() <exoplasim.gcmt.load>`
|
|
function. This takes the archive filename as its argument, and returns an object analogous to an
|
|
open netCDF file object. It has two members of interest to the user: ``variables`` and ``metadata``.
|
|
Both are compatible with all dictionary methods, and individual variables' data can be extracted by
|
|
using the variable name as the dictionary key. For example:
|
|
|
|
>>> import exoplasim.gcmt as gcmt
|
|
>>> myData = gcmt.load("MOST.0127.tar.gz")
|
|
>>> surfacetemperature = myData.variables['ts']
|
|
>>> surftemp_metadata = myData.metadata['ts']
|
|
|
|
Note that for CSV-type formats, like the tarball given above, the file is left compressed (except
|
|
during the initial read), and the whole dataset is `not` loaded into memory. Dimension arrays,
|
|
such as latitude, longitude, etc, are loaded, as is all metadata. By default, however, only one
|
|
data array will be loaded into memory. This can be expanded with the ``csvbuffersize`` keyword,
|
|
which takes the number of variables to permit to hold in the memory buffer. This buffer uses a
|
|
first-in, first-out approach, so if a new variable is requested and the buffer is full, the loaded
|
|
variable which was used the least recently will be purged from memory.
|
|
|
|
Postprocessor Variable Codes
|
|
----------------------------
|
|
|
|
Note that in addition to the variable codes listed below, if ``pyburn`` is used with ``stdev=True``,
|
|
there will also be variables that correspond to those listed below, with the ``_std`` suffix. If
|
|
time-averaging was performed during postprocessing, the standard deviation will be the standard deviation
|
|
for each averaged time period, and there will be the same number of timestamps for the ``_std`` variables
|
|
as for their nominal data counterparts. If time-averaging was not used, then each standard deviation
|
|
variable will have only one timestamp, corresponding to the standard deviation throughout the entire
|
|
timeseries present in the file.
