The majority of changes made in this release are to the organization of the framework code and should be transparent to users and POD developers; in particular, all current command-line settings will function in the same way, and all documentation on mdtf-diagnostics.readthedocs.io is up to date. The most relevant new features are:

  • Support for the new, more detailed POD settings file format described in the documentation website.
  • Automatic conversion of names and units for model data variables and coordinates (as specified in the new settings file format).
  • Automatic extraction of pressure levels from 4D data when needed.
  • Better logging and error handling. Debugging information is enabled with the ‘-v’ flag, and console output is automatically saved to a log file.
  • Support for fetching model data from files in the CMIP6 DRS directory hierarchy on a locally mounted drive.
  • Bug fixes for the GFDL-specific installation procedure.
