Earth-2 Model Intercomparison Project (MIP) is a python framework that enables climate researchers and scientists to inter-compare AI models for weather and climate.
Is this a new feature, an improvement, or a change to existing functionality?
Improvement
How would you describe the priority of this feature request
Medium
Please provide a clear description of problem you would like to solve.
Basic deterministic inference with e2mip is rather difficult and non-intuitive for some users. I've seen multiple users give up on the tool because of it.
xarray does not support netCDF groups well, so it looks like the output data is empty when using xarray.open_dataset. The solution is to pass xarray.open_dataset(path, group="group").
Likewise, most users simply want to run a deterministic forecast with a few output fields. This is too difficult to do right now, and requires a configuration like this:

Perhaps we could a simple convenience function for deterministic forecasts:
