earthkit.climate.atmos.snowfall_intensity

earthkit.climate.atmos.snowfall_intensity(prsn: xarray.DataArray | str = 'prsn', ds: xarray.Dataset | Any = None, *, thresh: Any = '1 mm/day', freq: str = 'YS-JUL', **kwargs: Any) → Any

Snowfall intensity.

Mean daily liquid water equivalent snowfall rate above threshold (either a snowfall flux or a liquid water equivalent snowfall rate)

Units:

• snowfall_intensity: mm/day

This function wraps xclim.indicators.atmos.snowfall_intensity.

Parameters:

• prsn (xarray.DataArray | str) – Snowfall flux.

• thresh (Any) – Threshold snowfall flux or liquid water equivalent snowfall rate (default: 1 mm/day).

• freq (str) – Resampling frequency.

• ds (xarray.Dataset | Any) – Input dataset.

• **kwargs (Any) – Additional keyword arguments.

Returns:

The computed index.

Return type:

Any
