Code to reproduce figures in the THAI trilogy

Python code to analyze and visualize climate model output for the TRAPPIST-1 Habitable Atmosphere Intercomparison (THAI).

Most figures from the THAI trilogy can be reproduced using Jupyter Notebooks in this reporistory. Python scripts contain functions to preprocess and clean the data. They also contain common and model-specific variables for convenience. Contributions are welcome.

Want to re-use the code? Here are the instructions.

Set up Python

Skip the first two steps if you have Jupyter Lab with nb_conda_kernels installed already.

  1. Install Miniforge.
  2. Install necessary packages to the base environment. Make sure you are installing them from the conda-forge channel.
conda install jupyterlab nb_conda_kernels
  1. Check out or download this repository.
  2. In the command line, navigate to the downloaded folder and create a separate conda environment.
conda env create --file environment.yml

Download THAI data

All GCM THAI data are permanently available for download here, with variables described for each dataset. If you use those data in your own research, please cite the relevant paper and add the following statement:

THAI data have been obtained from https://ckan.emac.gsfc.nasa.gov/organization/thai, a data repository of the Sellers Exoplanet Environments Collaboration (SEEC), which is funded in part by the NASA Planetary Science Divisions Internal Scientist Funding Model.

Open the code

  1. Start the Jupyter Lab, for example from the command line:
jupyter lab
  1. Open noteboks in the thai environment and start coding.

Pre-process data

If you want to re-draw figures from the THAI trilogy papers, we recommend that you create an intermediate dataset first by averaging the THAI data in time or in space. To get a dataset of time-averaged variables, use the THAI-Save-Time-Mean.ipynb notebook. To get a dataset of selected time series, use the THAI-Save-Time-Series.ipynb notebook. Before running these notebooks, make sure the paths to THAI data are set up correctly in mypaths.py! Also note that these two notebooks use dask which uses multiple cores to speed up calculations. You can adapt the number of cores to be more suitable for your machine.
