pyPDAF.get_fcst_info

pyPDAF.get_fcst_info()

Return the number of time steps, current model time, and a flag whether the forecasting should be exited.

This is used when the flexible parallelization mode is used with pyPDAF.PDAF3.assimilate(). This is also relevant for the legacy assimilation functions.

See also relevant PDAF page.

Parameters:
  • steps (int) – number of forecast time steps for next assimilation The input value can be an arbitrary integer

  • time (float) – current model time

  • doexit (int) – Whether to exit from forecasts

Returns:

  • steps (int) – number of forecast time steps for next assimilation The input value can be an arbitrary integer

  • time (float) – current model time

  • doexit (int) – Whether to exit from forecasts
