OceanSpy: A Python package to facilitate ocean model data analysis and visualization

Abstract: Simulations of ocean currents using numerical circulation models are becoming increasingly realistic. At the same time, these models generate increasingly large volumes of model output data. These trends make analysis of the model data harder for two reasons. First, researchers must use high-performance data-analysis clusters to access these large data sets. Second, they must post-process the data to extract oceanographically-useful information. Moreover, the increasing model realism encourages researchers to … Show more

“…We computed transports across each section of this line using the OceanSpy python toolbox (Almansi et al., 2019) “Survey” tool. Velocities at the shelfbreak are projected using the local shelf angle to compute the orthogonal velocity, which is then used to compute volume transport.…”

“…The salinity field is practical salinity, and practical salinity is used throughout the article. Additional fields and computations, as presented in Section 2.2, can be reproduced using the OceanSpy v0.1 python package (Almansi et al., 2019). To avoid confusion with other datasets, we will refer to this simulation as MITgcm in the rest of the manuscript.…”
