mom6-tools is the recommended way to diagnose regional MOM6 output in the CROCODILE ecosystem. It provides a set of Python-based tools for analyzing, visualizing, and quality-controlling MOM6 ocean model output.
Getting Started¶
Install mom6-tools from GitHub or PyPI:
pip install mom6-toolsOr install the development version:
git clone https://github.com/NCAR/mom6-tools
cd mom6-tools
pip install -e .What mom6-tools Provides¶
Time-series diagnostics — volume-mean temperature, salinity, and other scalar metrics over the model run
Surface and layer diagnostics — SSH, SST, MLD, and other surface fields
OBC diagnostics — inspect open boundary condition quality and variability
Vertical structure — analyze temperature/salinity profiles and stratification
Budget diagnostics — heat and salt budget analysis for regional domains
