nawdex_rad_plot

nawdex_analysis.plot.nawdex_map.nawdex_rad_plot(dset, region='zenith75', vname='lwf', is_clear=True)

Plots TOA Radiation Fluxes for NAWDEX Analysis.

Parameters:
  • dset (dict) –

    collection of 2d fields

    it should at least contain {‘lon’, ‘lat’, ‘mask’, vname}

  • region ({'max-extent', 'zenith75', 'atlantic'}, optional) –

    name of a selected region

    • ’max-extent’ : full NAWDEX simulations region
    • ’zenith75’ : cutout of the NAWDEX region where zenith_angle < 75 degree fits in
    • ’atlantic’ : cutout of the North Atlantic
  • vname ({'lwf', 'swf_net'}, optional) –

    name of radiation field to be plotted

    • ’lwf’ : longwave flux
    • ’swf_net’ : shortwave net flux (incoming - outgoing)
  • is_clear ({True, False}, optional) – switch for clearsky (NOT IMPLEMENTED SO FAR)
Returns:

mp – the map objetc which contains the plotted fields

Return type:

basemap map instance
