climpred.reference.compute_climatology(initialized, verif=None, metric='pearson_r', comparison='m2e', alignment='same_inits', dim='init', **metric_kwargs)[source]#

Compute the skill of a climatology forecast.

Parameters:

  • initialized – The initialized ensemble.

  • verif – control data, not needed

  • metric – Metric name to apply at each lag for the persistence computation. Default: ‘pearson_r’

  • dim – dimension to apply metric over.

  • ** metric_kwargs – additional keywords to be passed to metric (see the arguments required for a given metric in Metrics).

Returns:

clim –
