DataSet.ensemble_max(self, nco=False, ignore_time=False)

Calculate an ensemble maximum

Parameters

• nco (boolean) – Do you want to use NCO for the calculation? Default is False, i.e. CDO is used. Modify default if run time is an issue.

• ignore_time (boolean) – If True the max is calculated over all time steps. If False, the ensemble max is calculated for each time steps; for example, if the ensemble is made up of monthly files the max for each month will be calculated.
