oggm.core.massbalance.MassBalanceModel.get_annual_mb¶
-
MassBalanceModel.
get_annual_mb
(self, heights, year=None, fl_id=None)[source]¶ Like self.get_monthly_mb(), but for annual MB.
For some simpler mass-balance models
get_monthly_mb()` and `get_annual_mb()
can be equivalent.Units: [m s-1], or meters of ice per second
Note: year is optional because some simpler models have no time component.
- Parameters
- heights: ndarray
the atitudes at which the mass-balance will be computed
- year: float, optional
the time (in the “floating year” convention)
- fl_id: float, optional
the index of the flowline in the fls array (might be ignored by some MB models)
- Returns
- the mass-balance (same dim as heights) (units: [m s-1])
