Dear all
I am leaving this information here, which may be of interest to many people in this
forum.
Oceanum https://oceanum.science/ is pleased to announce the release of a
major version upgrade, v4 of Wavespectra!Wavespectra is an open-source Python library hosted on GitHub
https://github.com/wavespectra/wavespectra designed for working with
ocean wave spectral data. The library is built on top of xarray and offers
robust functionality including reading and writing various spectral data
formats, calculating integrated wave parameters, plotting and partitioning
wave spectra, among many other features.This major release is the culmination of contributions from various
developers, introducing useful new features
https://wavespectra.readthedocs.io/en/latest/history.html#id5, such as:
- Spectral reconstruction from partitions
https://wavespectra.readthedocs.io/en/latest/construction.html:
Utilises a variety of frequency and direction shape functions to construct
2d spectra from partitioned wave data.- New spectral partitioning methods
https://wavespectra.readthedocs.io/en/latest/partitioning.html:
Includes an implementation to track wave partitions over time from a common
wave system.- Improved Installation: The former Fortran watershed module has been
replaced with a new version written in C, making installation easier across
Linux, macOS, and Windows.For detailed information and reproducible examples, please visit our
comprehensive documentation https://wavespectra.readthedocs.io/en/latest/.We thank all the collaborators for their direct and indirect contributions
