climpred.classes.HindcastEnsemble.smooth

HindcastEnsemble.smooth(smooth_kws: str | Dict[str, int] | None = None, how: str = 'mean', **xesmf_kwargs: str)

Smooth in space and/or aggregate in time in PredictionEnsemble.

Parameters:

• smooth_kws – Dictionary to specify the dims to smooth compatible with spatial_smoothing_xesmf() or temporal_smoothing(). Shortcut for Goddard et al. [2013] goddard2013. Defaults to None.

• how – how to smooth temporally. From Choose from ["mean", "sum"]. Defaults to "mean".

• **xesmf_kwargs – kwargs passed to spatial_smoothing_xesmf()

Examples

>>> PerfectModelEnsemble.get_initialized().lead.size
20
>>> PerfectModelEnsemble.smooth(
...     {"lead": 4}, how="sum"
... ).get_initialized().lead.size
17

>>> HindcastEnsemble_3D.smooth({"lon": 1, "lat": 1})
<climpred.HindcastEnsemble>
Initialized:
    SST      (init, lead, lat, lon) float32 -0.3236 -0.3161 -0.3083 ... 0.0 0.0
Uninitialized:
    None
Observations:
    SST      (time, lat, lon) float32 0.002937 0.001561 0.002587 ... 0.0 0.0 0.0

smooth simultaneously aggregates spatially listening to lon and lat and temporally listening to lead or time.
