oceanspy.compute.laplacian
- oceanspy.compute.laplacian(od, varNameList=None, axesList=None, aliased=True)[source]
Compute laplacian along specified axis
\[\nabla^2 \chi = \nabla \cdot \nabla \chi\]- Parameters:
- od: OceanDataset
oceandataset used to compute.
- varNameList: 1D array_like, str
Name of variables to differenciate. If None, use all variables.
- axesList: None, list
List of axes. If None, compute gradient along all space axes.
- aliased: bool
Set it False when working with private ds and grid.
- Returns:
- ds: xarray.Dataset
- dd[varName]_d[axis]_ds[axis]
