What’s new in iris-grib v0.13

Release

0.13.0

Date

15 Jun 2018

Features

  • Added saving of data on Hybrid Pressure levels (surface type 119 in code table 4.5).

  • Added loading and saving of data on Hybrid Height levels (surface type 118 in code table 4.5).

  • Added loading and saving of data using Mercator projection (grid definition template 10 in template table 3.1)

    Note

    Loading and saving for the Mercator projection is only available using iris versions greater than 2.1.0.

  • Added saving for data on irregular, non-rotated grids (grid definition template 4 in template table 3.1)

  • Added release notes for versions since 0.9.

Bug Fixes

  • Fixed a bug with loading data on Hybrid Pressure levels (surface types 105 and 119 in code table 4.5). Previously, all hybrid coordinate values, in both ‘level_pressure’ and ‘sigma’ coordinates, were loaded from the next level up, i.e. (model_level_number + 1).

    Note

    This changes loading behaviour for data on hybrid pressure levels only. This is an incompatible change, but the coefficent values previously returned were essentially useless, with some values missing.
