Installation

You can install the latest stable release of epwshiftr from CRAN.

install.packages("epwshiftr")

Alternatively, you can install the development version from GitHub.

install.packages("epwshiftr",
    repos = c(

        cran     = "https://cran.r-project.org"
    )
)

Get started

Build CMIP6 output file index

  • The first step is to build CMIP6 experiment output file index based on queries using ESGF search RESTful API
# set directory to store files
options(epwshiftr.dir = tempdir())
options(epwshiftr.verbose = TRUE)

# get CMIP6 data nodes
(nodes <- get_data_node())

Manage CMIP6 output files

  • You have to download CMIP6 output file by yourself using your preferable methods or tools. The download url can be found in the file_url column in the index.

  • After you have downloaded CMIP6 output files of interest, you can use suumary_database() to get a summary on files downloaded against the CMIP6 output file index.

  • This step is necessary as it map the loaded files against index so that epwshiftr knows which case is complete and can be used for the next step.

# Summary downloaded file by GCM and variable, use the latest downloaded file if
# multiple matches are detected and save matched information into the index file
sm <- summary_database(tempdir(), by = c("source", "variable"), mult = "latest", update = TRUE)
#> 24 NetCDF files found.
#> Data file index updated and saved to '/tmp/RtmpDtbJVc/cmip6_index.csv'

Extract CMIP6 output data
