Class work for Climate Data class at GMU.
I'm using data from the ERA5 post-processed daily statistics reanalysis, specifically looking at the 2m temperature variable (t2m) for the max daily temperature recorded at 0.25° x 0.25° (atmosphere) / 0.5° x 0.5° (ocean waves) resolution around the entire globe.
This assignment uses xarray and cartopy to create a facet grid of mean monthly max temperature across the globe:
This assignment examines the relationship between the t2m temperature data and the AMO (Atlantic Multidecadal Oscillation) Index with maps and a statistical test:
