earthkit.climate.land.snd_season_length¶
- earthkit.climate.land.snd_season_length(snd: xarray.DataArray | str = 'snd', ds: xarray.Dataset | Any = None, *, thresh: Any = '2 cm', window: int = 14, freq: str = 'YS-JUL', **kwargs: Any) Any¶
Snow cover duration (depth).
The season starts when snow depth is above a threshold for at least N consecutive days and stops when it drops below the same threshold for the same number of days.
Units:
snd_season_length: days
This function wraps xclim.indicators.land.snd_season_length.
- Parameters:
snd (
xarray.DataArray | str) – Surface snow thickness.thresh (
Any) – Threshold snow thickness.window (
int) – Minimum number of days with snow depth above and below threshold.freq (
str) – Resampling frequency. The default value is chosen for the northern hemisphere.ds (
xarray.Dataset | Any) – Input dataset.**kwargs (
Any) – Additional keyword arguments.
- Returns:
The computed index.
- Return type:
Any
