-==== cdms2 ==== 
  
-Summary: cdms2 can read/write netCDF files (and read //grads// dat+ctl files) ​and provides a higher level interface than netCDF4. cdms2 is available in the [[other:python:​starting#​cdat|CDAT distribution]]and can theoretically be installed independently of CDAT (e.g. it will be installed when you install ​[[https://cmor.llnl.gov/mydoc_cmor3_conda/|CMOR in conda)]]. When you can use cdms2, you also have access to //cdtime//, that is very useful for handling time axis data.+==== CliMAF ​and C-ESM-EP ====

-How to get started: 
-  - read [[http://​www.lsce.ipsl.fr/​Phocea/​file.php?​class=page&​file=5/​pythonCDAT_jyp_2sur2_070306.pdf|JYP'​s cdms tutorial]], starting at page 54 
-    - the tutorial is in French (soooorry!) 
-    - you have to replace //cdms// with **cdms2**, and //MV// with **MV2** (sooorry about that, the tutorial was written when CDAT was based on //Numeric// instead of //numpy// to handle array data) 
-  - read the [[http://​cdms.readthedocs.io/​en/​docstanya/​index.html|official cdms documentation]] (link may change)
