Announcements
- Deprecation: Release 0.25.0 of
xclim
will be the last version to explicitly support Python3.6 andxarray<0.17.0
.
New indicators
land.winter_storm
computes days with snow accumulation over threshold.land.blowing_snow
computes days with both snow accumulation over last days and high wind speeds.land.snow_melt_we_max
computes the maximum snow melt over n days, andland.melt_and_precip_max
the maximum combined snow melt and precipitation.snd_max_doy
returns the day of the year where snow depth reaches its maximum value.atmos.high_precip_low_temp
returns days with freezing rain conditions (low temperature and precipitations).land.snow_cover_duration
computes the number of days snow depth exceeds some minimal threshold.land.continuous_snow_cover_start
andland.continuous_snow_cover_end
identify the day of the year when snow depth crosses a threshold for a given period of time.days_with_snow
, counts days with snow between low and high thresholds, e.g. days with high amount of snow (indice
andindicator
available).fire_season
, creates a fire season mask from temperature and, optionally, snow depth time-series.
New features and enhancements
generic.count_domain
counts values within low and high thresholds.run_length.season
returns a dataset storing the start, end and length of a season.- Fire Weather indices now support dask-backed data.
- Objects from the
xclim.sdba
submodule can be created from their string repr or from the dataset they created. - Fire Weather Index submodule replicates the R code of
cffdrs
, including fire season determination and overwintering of the drought_code. - New
run_bounds
andkeep_longest_run
utilities inxclim.indices.run_length
. - New bias-adjustment method:
PrincipalComponent
(based on Hnilica et al. 2017 https://doi.org/10.1002/joc.4890).
Internal changes
- Small changes in the output of
indices.run_length.rle
