Get GRS element concentration/sigma values at the specified coordinates.
Data (0.41 MiB) is provided by Rani (2022). The full paper discusses/analyzes the models in detail (Rani et al., 2022).
Parameters:
Name | Type | Description | Default |
---|---|---|---|
element
|
str
|
Element name. Options are: ['al', 'ca', 'cl', 'fe', 'h2o', 'k', 'si', 's', 'th']. |
required |
lon
|
float | np.ndarray
|
Longitude coordinate(s) in range [-180, 360]. |
required |
lat
|
float | np.ndarray
|
Latitude coordinate(s) in range [-90, 90]. |
required |
quantity
|
str
|
Return 'concentration' or 'sigma' values, by default 'concentration'. |
'concentration'
|
normalize
|
bool
|
If True, normalize the element quantity to a volatile-free (Cl, H2O, S) basis, by default False.
|
False
|
as_xarray
|
bool
|
If True, return the data as an |
False
|
Returns:
Type | Description |
---|---|
float | np.ndarray | xr.DataArray
|
Data values at the the input coordinates. The return type is determined as follows:
Units are mass fraction (out of one). |
Raises:
Type | Description |
---|---|
ValueError
