FixedTemperature

class konrad.surface.FixedTemperature(*args, **kwargs)

Surface model with fixed temperature.

__init__(temperature=288.0, **kwargs)

Initialize a surface model with constant surface temperature.

Parameters

• temperature (float) – Surface temperature [K].

• albedo (float) – Surface albedo [1]. The default value of 0.2 is a decent choice for clear-sky simulation in the tropics.

• longwave_emissivity (float) – Longwave emissivity [1].

• height (float) – Surface height [m].

Methods

__init__([temperature])	Initialize a surface model with constant surface temperature.
adjust(*args, **kwargs)	Do not adjust anything for fixed temperature surfaces.
create_variable(name[, data, dims])	Create a variable in the model component.
from_atmosphere(atmosphere, **kwargs)	Initialize the surface by extrapolating the atmospheric temperature.
from_netcdf(ncfile[, timestep])	Create a surface model from a netCDF file.
get(variable[, default, keepdims])	Get values of a given variable.
hash_attributes()	Create a hash from all hashable component attributes.
set(variable, value)	Set the values of a variable.
to_dataset()	Convert model component into an xarray.Dataset.

Attributes

attrs	Dictionary containing all attributes.
data_vars	Dictionary containing all data variables and their dimensions.
netcdf_subgroups	Define subgroups used when storing to netCDF file.
