import iris from improver.ensemble_copula_coupling.ensemble_copula_coupling import GenerateProbabilisticForecast # Load in some example data input_data = iris.load_cube("input_data.nc", "precipitation_rate") # Instantiate the ensemble copula coupling plugin ecc = GenerateProbabilisticForecast(num_realizations=10, max_iterations=100) # Apply the plugin to generate probabilistic forecasts output_data = ecc.process(input_data) # Save the output forecasts as a netCDF file iris.save(output_data, "output_data.nc")In this example, we're loading in a single cube of ensemble precipitation rate data from a netCDF file. We then create an instance of the `GenerateProbabilisticForecast` plugin, specifying that we want 10 realizations of the output forecasts (i.e. the number of ensemble members) and a maximum of 100 iterations for the coupling process. Finally, we use the plugin's `process` method to generate the probabilistic forecasts and save them to a new netCDF file. Overall, `ensemble_copula_coupling` is a useful Python plugin for performing Ensemble Copula Coupling, which is a powerful statistical downscaling method for generating higher resolution probabilistic forecasts. It's part of the larger `improver` package library, which provides a range of statistical and machine learning tools for weather and climate data analysis.
