e3sm_to_cmip’s documentation

The e3sm_to_cmip package converts E3SM model output variables to the CMIP standard format. The tool supports variables in the atmospheric, land, MPAS ocean, and MPAS sea-ice realms. The handling of each realm is slightly different, so care must be made when dealing with the various data types (refer to Preprocessing Data by Realm)
