Recent Releases of HuracanPy

HuracanPy - V1.3.0

Added

  • Include missing accessor functions
    • get_beta_drift and add_beta_drift
    • plot_fancyline
  • plot.tracks and plot.density can be placed on existing axes if they are explicitly passed to the function
  • Load tracks from the Imperial College Storm Model (IRIS)
  • huracanpy.infer_track_id to generate a track ID from unique combinations of variables. e.g. "year" and "storm number in year".
    • Also add as an option to huracanpy.load
  • Can use huracanpy.load with a list of files
  • huracanpy.concat_tracks to concatenate tracks while keeping the track_id as a unique identifier

Changed

  • Reduced unnecessary warning messages
  • Always use var_name as the accessor keyword for choosing a specific variable. Previously some functions used varname

Fixed

  • Consistent use of track_id in delta calculations
  • Correctly convert units in category functions
  • Always do the beta_drift calculation with wind speed in metres per second
  • Allow requesting other time components than year/month/day/hour from add_time_components, consistent with info.time_components
  • get_azimuth was calling the wrong function
  • Correctly use wind in "knots" and pressure in "hPa" when using pre-calculated pressure-wind relations ("holland", "z2021") in tc.pace
  • Use a lower precision datetime64 when times are outside the default representable range

HuracanPy - v1.1.0

Added

Support for WiTRACK text files in huracanpy.load
Beta-drift computation (along with RMW support within distance function)
Full documentation incuding new examples
kde option for densities
Reference track set option for matching
Basin definitions from E. Sainsbury's papers

HuracanPy - Version 1.0.0

Added

  • xarray Dataset accessor (hrcn)
  • Extra keyword arguments to huracanpy.load
    • rename
    • units
    • baselon
  • sel_id function to select a single track by track_id from a Dataset but faster than using groupby

Changed

  • Simplified module namespaces
    • utils.{module}.{function} -> info.{function}
    • diags.{module}.{function} -> calc.{function} or tc.{function}
    • subset.trackswhere -> trackswhere
  • Simplified function naming
    • plot_ prefix removed functions in plot module
  • Modified arguments to load
    • keyword tracker renamed source to reflect not all tracks are from trackers, e.g. IBTrACS or statistical-dynamical downscaling models
    • Use ibtracs_subset to determine whether the subset is online or not, removing ibtracs_online keyword
    • When filename is specified for an online IBTrACS dataset, save the downloaded data to that file, rather than using ibtracs_clean=False and a default filename
  • Use a single matching function assess.match for 2 or more datasets instead of assess.match_pair and assess.match_multiple
  • Remove get_ from functions in info. Instead this syntax is used to differentiate get_ and add_ functions in the hrcn accessor
  • Split info.get_land_or_ocean into is_land and is_ocean
  • Renamed tc.sshs_cat to tc.saffir_simpson_category and tc.pres_cat to tc.pressure_category
  • Improved support for calculations with units (using metpy style functions)
  • Updated IBTrACS data

Removed

  • add_info argument from huracanpy.load
  • add_all_info function. Instead use add_ functions on hrcn accessor
  • get_time. Functionality already covered by pandas.to_datetime

Fixed

  • huracanpy.info.season now works with cftime.datetime

HuracanPy - First beta release

This version of HuracanPy is meant for beta-testing of the very first version of the package. It has all the basic features, but has not been tested outside the development team.
