Clima

Clima is a radiative transfer code and a climate model.

Installation

Conda

Clima is a module of the photochem package, which can be installed via conda:

conda install -c conda-forge photochem

You can then import clima.

from photochem import clima

From source

You need a Fortran compiler (gfortran>=9.30, install instructions here) and C compiler (e.g. install with conda install -c conda-forge clang)

Create a conda environment with all dependencies

conda create -n clima -c conda-forge python numpy scipy pyyaml scikit-build cython h5py

Clone this Gitub repository:

git clone --depth=1 --recursive https://github.com/Nicholaswogan/clima.git

Navigate to the root directory with a terminal, activate your new conda environment, then install with pip:

conda activate clima
python -m pip install --no-deps --no-build-isolation . -v
# or `python setup.py install`, if the above command doesn't work for some reason

If your installation fails, and it is not clear why, please raise an issue.
