New and improved

  • cime_gen_domain:

    • The gen_domain tool as part of the CIME v6.1.59 tag, now separate from e3sm-tools

  • ChemDyg:

    • Updates to be compatible with zppy (v3.0.0)
    • Some minor fixes

  • E3SM-Diags:

    • v3.0.0 marks a major milestone after nearly two years of work by the core development team. This release introduces a completely new back-end, replacing CDAT with Xarray and xCDAT. The user-facing API for running E3SM Diagnostics remains backward-compatible between v2 and v3. The modernization improves performance, usability, and maintainability, unit tests coverage and regression testing framework.

    • User-facing Enhancements

      • Add support for most EAMxx variables.
      • Replaced SciPy cwt module with PyWavelets cwt for the added wavelet analysis in QBO set.
      • The viewer is now at the top level of results directory
      • Revamped logger module for additional features and bug fixes.
      • View the full changelog [TBA] for more information.

  • e3sm_to_cmip:

    • Bug Fixes to fix table/freq ambiguity for multi-frequency variables; Remove positive from hfsifrazil; Fix masking of 3D MPAS-Ocean variables.
    • Additional refactoring of cmor setup for specific variables (areacella, clisccp, orog, sftlf).
    • Consolidate cmor setup code to simplify implementation.

  • e3sm-tools

    • Updates to cube_to_target, interpinic, mksurfdata_map as part of the E3SM v3.0.2 tag

  • livvkit:

    • Handles missing performance files more gracefully
    • Improves file diff section header titles

  • mosaic:

    • Enables visualization of unstructured MPAS data on the native mesh with matplotlib, through drop in replacements for pcolormesh / pcolor.
    • Visualization of fields at all mesh locations (i.e. Cells, Edges, and Vertices) is supported.
    • Supports map projected figures through cartopy for both planar and spherical meshes.
      • Currently only a subset of map projections are supported for spherical meshes, but we are currently working on expanding support to all cartopy projections.

  • MPAS-Analysis:

    • Maps of surface mass and heat fluxes
    • Maps of velocity
    • Maps of numerous new sea-ice fields
    • Major bug fix to the horizontal streamfunction

  • NCO:

    • Vertical interpolation works on latest ERA5, MERRA2 formats
    • ncclimo timeseries will output regional statistics (scaled sums or means)
    • ELM restart file gridification allows selecting output landunit/column type, re-orders snow layers
    • ncks --chk_map diagnoses grid resolution
    • ncremap regridder improvements, MPAS-A support

  • pcmdi_metrics:

  • squadgen:

  • xcdat:

    • Improve performance of the Regrid2 API.
    • Significantly improved the performance of temporal group averaging by addressing an Xarray bug discovered during debugging. The bug was subsequently fixed by the Xarray team.
    • Enhanced support for temporal averaging with custom seasons
    • Many bug fixes and documentation updates.
    • View the full changelog for more information.

  • zppy:

    • zppy 3.0.0 is a major release; there are non-backwards-compatible ("breaking") changes. It is therefore highly recommended to read the release notes (INSERT LINK HERE), in particular for users of e3sm_to_cmip, tc_analysis, global_time_series, and ilamb functionalities.
    • The e3sm_to_cmip functionality is now accessed via its own task rather than via the ts task with ts_fmt = cmip.
    • The global_time_series task is now implemented with a new package, zppy-interfaces, which is meant for Python scripts that extend external packages for easy use by E3SM users, whereas zppy itself is meant for workflow automation (i.e., calling code written outside zppy).
    • global_time_series has also been extended to work for Land variables and to generate viewers similar to those in e3sm_diags.
    • Parameter inference and validation have been improved and formalized. Users now have the ability to specify if they don't want zppy to infer parameters (for a file path or for the section name of a task dependency).
    • CDAT is no longer a dependency for zppy. xCDAT is now user for handling global_time_series and e3sm_diags.
    • The tc_analysis task underwent a number of improvements to be more robust.

  • zppy-interfaces:

    • As noted in the zppy section above, this is a new package meant for Python scripts that extend external packages for easy use by E3SM users. It is currently home to the global_time_series plotting functionality. Future additions include the PCMDI metrics plotting.

  • zstash:

    • Important changes were made to the zstash code base to make it more robust:
      • --follow-symlinks will now only create a symlink in the destination directory, not also the source directory.
      • --non-blocking functionality (i.e., tars are created while a Globus transfer is ongoing) now occurs if and only if this option is used, as opposed to always occurring.
