nctoolkit.DataSet.tmax¶
- DataSet.tmax(self, over='time')¶
Calculate the temporal maximum of all variables
- Parameters
over (str or list) – Time periods to average over. Options are ‘year’, ‘month’, ‘day’.
Examples
If you want to calculate maximum over all time steps. Do the following:
>>> ds.tmax()
If you want to calculate the maximum for each year in a dataset, do this:
>>> ds.tmax("year")
If you want to calculate the maximum for each month in a dataset, do this:
>>> ds.tmax("month")
If you want to calculate the maximum for each month in each year in a dataset, do this:
>>> ds.tmax(["year", "month"])
This method will also let you easily calculate climatologies. So, if you wanted to calculate a monthly climatological max, you would do this:
>>> ds.tmax( "month")
A daily climatological maximum would be the following:
>>> ds.tmax( "day")
