climpred.classes.HindcastEnsemble.compute_uninitialized

HindcastEnsemble.compute_uninitialized(refname=None, metric='pearson_r', comparison='e2r')[source]

Compares the uninitialized ensemble to a given reference.

This will automatically run the comparison against all shared variables between the initialized ensemble and reference.

Parameters:
  • refname (str) – Name of reference to compare to. If None, compare to all references.
  • metric (str, default 'pearson_r') – Metric to apply in the comparison.
  • comparison (str, default 'e2r') – How to compare to the reference. (‘e2r’ for ensemble mean to reference. ‘m2r’ for each individual member to reference)
Returns:

Dataset of comparison results (if comparing to one reference), or dictionary of Datasets with keys corresponding to reference name.
