Methods

add_diagnostic(name[, value])

Create a new diagnostic variable called name for this process and initialize it with the given value.

add_input(name[, value])

Create a new input variable called name for this process and initialize it with the given value.

add_subprocess(name, proc)

Adds a single subprocess to this process.

add_subprocesses(procdict)

Adds a dictionary of subproceses to this process.

compute()

Computes the tendencies for all state variables given current state and specified input.

compute_diagnostics([num_iter])

Compute all tendencies and diagnostics, but don't update model state.

declare_diagnostics(diaglist)

Add the variable names in inputlist to the list of diagnostics.

declare_input(inputlist)

Add the variable names in inputlist to the list of necessary inputs.

integrate_converge([crit, verbose])

Integrates the model until model states are converging.

integrate_days([days, verbose])

Integrates the model forward for a specified number of days.

integrate_years([years, verbose])

Integrates the model by a given number of years.

remove_diagnostic(name)

Removes a diagnostic from the process.diagnostic dictionary and also delete the associated process attribute.

remove_subprocess(name[, verbose])

Removes a single subprocess from this process.

set_state(name, value)

Sets the variable name to a new state value.

set_timestep([timestep, num_steps_per_year])

Calculates the timestep in unit seconds and calls the setter function of timestep()

step_forward()

Updates state variables with computed tendencies.

to_xarray([diagnostics])
