classmethod Grid.regular_lat_lon(lon_start, lon_end, lat_start, lat_end, nx, ny, z=None, mask=None, radius=6371000.0)[source]#

Generate a regular spherical grid.

Parameters:

  • lon_start (float) – Smallest longitude in degrees

  • lon_end (float) – larges longitude in degrees

  • lat_start (float) – Smallest latitude in degrees

  • lat_end (float) – larges latitude in degrees

  • nx (int) – Number of grid points along x dimension.

  • ny (int) – Number of grid points along y dimension.

  • z (Array, default None) – Optional 1D coordinate array along vertical dimension.

  • mask (Array, default None) – Optional ocean mask. Default is a closed domain.

  • radius (float, default 6_371_000.0) – Radius of the sphere, defaults to Earths’ radius measured in meters.
