Args:
cube (iris.cube.Cube):
A Cube containing the forecast to be calibrated. The input format
could be either realizations, probabilities or percentiles.
coefficients (iris.cube.Cube):
A cube containing the coefficients used for calibration or None.
If none then then input is returned unchanged.
land_sea_mask (iris.cube.Cube):

forecast that is to be calibrated. Land points are "
"specified by ones and sea points are specified by zeros. "
"If not None this argument will enable land-only calibration, in "
"which sea points are returned without the application of "
"calibration."
distribution (str):
The distribution for constructing realizations, percentiles or
probabilities. This should typically match the distribution used
for minimising the Continuous Ranked Probability Score when
estimating the EMOS coefficients. The distributions available are
those supported by :data:`scipy.stats`.
realizations_count (int):
Option to specify the number of ensemble realizations that will be
created from probabilities or percentiles for input into EMOS.
randomise (bool):
Option to reorder the post-processed forecasts randomly. If not
set, the ordering of the raw ensemble is used. This option is
only valid when the input format is realizations.
random_seed (int):
Option to specify a value for the random seed for testing
purposes, otherwise the default random seen behaviour is utilised.
The random seed is used in the generation of the random numbers
used for either the randomise option to order the input
percentiles randomly, rather than use the ordering from the raw
ensemble, or for splitting tied values within the raw ensemble,
so that the values from the input percentiles can be ordered to
match the raw ensemble.
ignore_ecc_bounds (bool):
If True, where the percentiles exceed the ECC bounds range,
raises a warning rather than an exception. This occurs when the
current forecasts is in the form of probabilities and is
converted to percentiles, as part of converting the input
probabilities into realizations.
predictor (str):
String to specify the form of the predictor used to calculate
the location parameter when estimating the EMOS coefficients.
Currently the ensemble mean ("mean") and the ensemble
realizations ("realizations") are supported as the predictors.
shape_parameters (float or str):
The shape parameters required for defining the distribution
specified by the distribution argument. The shape parameters
should either be a number or 'inf' or '-inf' to represent
infinity. Further details about appropriate shape parameters
are available in scipy.stats. For the truncated normal
distribution with a lower bound of zero, as available when
estimating EMOS coefficients, the appropriate shape parameters
are 0 and inf.
Returns:
iris.cube.Cube:
The calibrated forecast cube.
Raises:
ValueError:
If the current forecast is a coefficients cube.
ValueError:
If the coefficients cube does not have the right name of
"emos_coefficients".
ValueError:
If the forecast type is 'percentiles' or 'probabilities' and the
