SamudrACE exogenous forcing data source.
Provides the exogenous atmosphere forcing variables of the SamudrACE
coupled emulator (e.g. downward shortwave radiation at the top of the
atmosphere, land/lake fraction, surface height) from the
allenai/SamudrACE-CM4-piControl HuggingFace repository, served with
Earth2Studio variable names via the SamudrACELexicon.
Each forcing scenario NetCDF covers exactly one year of 6-hourly data on the no-leap CM4 model calendar (1460 timesteps). Time-varying fields are matched to requested times by month, day, and hour, ignoring the year, so the forcing series tiles annually for multi-year trajectories. Static fields are broadcast to every requested time. Requests that have no no-leap counterpart (February 29) or that fall off the 6-hourly grid raise an error.
Parameters:
-
scenario(str, default:'0311') –Forcing scenario, either
"0151"or"0311", by default"0311". -
cache(bool, default:True) –Cache downloaded files locally (via the shared HuggingFace hub cache), by default True.
-
verbose(bool, default:True) –Log download progress, by default True.
Warning
Each forcing scenario is a NetCDF file of roughly 300 MB that is downloaded on demand.

__call__ ¶
__call__(
time: datetime | list[datetime] | TimeArray,
variable: str | list[str] | VariableArray,
) -> DataArray
Fetch forcing data.
Parameters:
-
time(datetime | list[datetime] | TimeArray) –Timestamps to return data for. Time-varying fields are matched by month, day, and hour on the no-leap forcing calendar.
-
variable(str | list[str] | VariableArray) –Earth2Studio variable names (see
SamudrACELexicon).
Returns:
-
DataArray–Data array with dimensions
[time, variable, lat, lon]and latitude ordered north to south.
