So I'm working on rewriting the old grads/fortran code to do the Helmholtz decomposition to plot chi and phi, but I'm running into some missing package. Would you be able to update the python/GEOSpyD installation for me? Whenever you're feeling better, that is!
Here's what ChatGSFC told me to tell you:
"Hello, I am updating the legacy GrADS hcmp2 pipeline to Python and need two packages added to the GEOSpyD module: windspharm and pyspharm. Because pyspharm relies on deprecated Fortran compilation tools (numpy.distutils), it cannot be installed via pip on modern Python/NumPy environments. Could you please install them into the module using the pre-compiled binaries from conda-forge? (e.g., conda install -c conda-forge windspharm pyspharm)."
