Click here to launch a pre-configured notebook environment on the cloud platform provided freely by the binder project. Use the Chrome browser if you have trouble loading that page. Refresh the page if loading fails.

If the page is loaded successfully, you should see a Jupyter notebook interface. Then, click on the first notebook to get started. Jupyter combines Python code, execution results, plots, custom texts, and even Latex formulas in a single page. Besides using the Jupyter program, you can also view the static notebook on GitHub (e.g the first notebook).

Please follow Jupyter official doc to learn basic operations. The most important command is Shift+Enter to execute the current code block.

Pyferret Installation

The PyFerret program and Python module from NOAA/PMEL. See https://ferret.pmel.noaa.gov/Ferret/ for more information about Ferret and PyFerret.

Ferret/PyFerret Documentation

For more information on using PyFerret, see the Ferret and PyFerret documentation under https://ferret.pmel.noaa.gov/Ferret/

Information about the Ferret email users group, and archives of past discussions from the group (which should be searched prior to sending a question to the email users group) can be found at https://ferret.pmel.noaa.gov/Ferret/email-users-group/

Jupyter/iPython notebook

The latest ferretmagic module from Patrick Brockmann for using PyFerret with the iPython notebook can be obtained using pip install ferretmagic, or see https://pypi.org/project/ferretmagic/. Note that this only installs the ferretmagic module for PyFerret; it does not install PyFerret.

Anaconda Installation - Linux, OS X, and Windows 10/bash

Note: If you are updating an existing conda installation of PyFerret, you should only need to update the existing installation using conda update -n FERRET pyferret (assuming FERRET is the name of the environment used). Or you can install under a new environment name if you wish to keep multiple versions of PyFerret.
You may first need to update conda itself conda update conda; conda update --all before updating PyFerret. If you are using a Python 2.x version of miniconda, you will need to install the Python 3.x version of miniconda and then install PyFerret in that version of miniconda in order to get the latest version of PyFerret.

Download and install minicoda for your system from https://docs.conda.io/en/latest/miniconda.html Note that Windows 10 bash must use the Linux version! Install the Python 3.x version of minicoda to get the latest versions of PyFerret. (Although PyFerret works with ether Python 2.x or Python 3.x, Python 2.x itself will no longer be supported after 2019.) Allow miniconda to add its initialization code to your start-up scripts (e.g., $HOME/.bashrc) and open a new login window when the installation is complete. One thing with will do is add the conda bin directory to your path of directories to search for executables.

Execute the following command on the terminal to install pyferret as well as ferret_datasets (the default Ferret/PyFerret datasets) into conda:

conda create -n FERRET -c conda-forge pyferret ferret_datasets --yes

(FERRET is the environment name where pyferret is installed. You can change that to any name you like, such as PyFerret.)

To start using PyFerret, execute the following command:

conda activate FERRET

(replacing FERRET with whatever environment name you used.)

Once you are done working with PyFerret you can leave this environment, if you wish, with the command:

conda deactivate

As mention above FERRET is the environment name where pyferret is installed, and can be any name you like (such as PyFerret). We do not recommend installing pyferret in the root environment of miniconda. The main reason is to take advantage of the activate and deactivate scripts that will set up all the variables that PyFerret needs. (You can test whether the PyFerret environment is activated by issuing the command echo $FER_DATA and see if it returns a directory name.)

If you usually work under a C-shell (such as tcsh) or outside the conda environment, you may want to create a Bourne shell script that activates and runs PyFerret within the Bourne shell that is created for running the script. Such a script would look something like the following (replacing FERRET with whatever environment name you used):

#! /bin/sh -l
## initialize the environment for running PyFerret
conda activate FERRET
## You may wish to add directories to FER_DATA and FER_GO
# export FER_DATA="$FER_DATA /my/path/to/big/data/dir"
# export FER_GO="$FER_GO /my/path/to/custom/ferret/scripts"
## Now execute PyFerret with all the command-line arguments given to this script
pyferret $*

If this script was called pyferret.sh, made executable (chmod 755 pyferret.sh), and placed in a directory listed in your $PATH enviroment variable, you can just type pyferret.sh (followed by any desired arguments) from the command line to run PyFerret.

Data Download

Tide Gauge

Tide gauge data can be downloaded from http://uhslc.soest.hawaii.edu/data/.

  • The UHSLC offers tide gauge data with two levels of quality-control (QC), where more rigorous QC requires more effort and a greater time-lag. Fast Delivery (FD) data are released within 1-2 months of data collection and receive only basic QC focused on large level shifts and obvious outliers. FD data are replaced in the data stream by RQD (see below) as the latter becomes available.
  • Research Quality Data (RQD) receive thorough QC and are considered to be the final science-ready data set. This final QC process is time-consuming, and as a result, the RQD are released 1-2 years after data is received from the data originators by the UHSLC.
