i7aof.config

Configuration loader and helpers.

i7aof.config.load_config(model: str | None = None, clim_name: str | None = None, inputdir: str | None = None, workdir: str | None = None, user_config_filename: str | None = None) → MpasConfigParser

Convert thetao/so monthly files to ct/sa for a CMIP model.

Conversion is performed per thetao/so pair. Outputs store only ct & sa plus coordinate variables; bounds variables for depth/lat/lon are injected only in the final merged file to avoid acquiring a spurious time dimension.

Parameters:

  • model (str) – Name of the CMIP model (used to select the model config and to construct output paths).

  • clim_name (str) – The name of the reference climatology (e.g. “zhou_annual_30_sep.cfg”).

  • inputdir (str, optional) – Base directory where the relative input file paths are resolved. If not provided, uses [inputdir] base_dir from the config.

  • workdir (str, optional) – Base working directory where outputs will be written. If not provided, uses [workdir] base_dir from the config.

  • user_config_filename (str, optional) – Optional user config that overrides defaults (paths, variable names, chunk sizes, etc.).
