问题描述

I have a grib file containing monthly precipitation and temperature from 1989 to 2018 (extracted from ERA5-Land).

I need to have those data in a dataset format with 6 column : longitude, latitude, ID of the cell/point in the grib file, date, temperature and precipitation.

I first imported the file using cfgrib. Here is what contains the xdata list after importation:

import cfgrib

grib_data = cfgrib.open_datasets('\era5land_extract.grib')

grib_data

So the temperature variable is called "t2m" and the precipitation variable "tp". Temperature variable is split in two xarrays but I don't understand why.

How can I obtain the needed dataset from this please ?

It's the first time I'm dealing with such data, and I'm really lost on how to proceed.

Here is the answer after a bit of trial and error (only putting the result for tp variable but it's similar for t2m)

import cfgrib
import xarray as xr


# Import data
grib_data = cfgrib.open_datasets('\era5land_extract.grib')


# Merge both tp arrays into one on the time dimension
grib_precip = xr.merge([grib_data[1], grib_data[2]])


# Aggregate data by year
grib_precip_year = grib_precip.resample(time="Y", skipna=True).mean()


# Data from xarray to pandas
grib_precip_pd = grib_precip_year.to_dataframe()
