Variable names in glob_stats json files for Q1 and Q3 models #317

Closed AugustinMortier closed 3 years ago

AugustinMortier commented 3 years ago

The variable used when computing Q1 or Q3 models has 'q1' or 'q3' in it in the glob_stats files. I think it should be the same..?

init.glob_stats[init.par.dir][init.obs][init.layer]['AEROCOM-MEAN']
{od550aer: {…}}
init.glob_stats[init.par.dir][init.obs][init.layer]['AEROCOM-Q3']
{od550aerq3: {…}}

@AugustinMortier well spotted. This is sort of expected, as this needs to be encoded in the variable name, since we do not have a clean way yet, to encode which statistics a variable corresponds to. We should think about that. But for now, od550aer would represent an average (mean, median,...) but od550aerq3 really represents the 75% perentile.

Is it a problem if these variable names are used in the json files?
