Parcels v2.1.5 builds upon previous versions of Parcels and both improved the reliability as well as the efficiency and versatility of Parcels. In particular
- Speed up by perhaps a factor 10(!) in some use-cases by switching data structure of
ParticleSet
from Array-of-Structures to Structure-of-Arrays (#678, thanks @angus-g!) - Support for sigma-grids with time-varying depth dimensions (#660, see also this tutorial)
- Further fixes some issues with
dask
chunking (# 764, #774, #776) - Improves reliability when
dt
is very small (< 0.001 s) (#762) - Support for a new ErrorCode
StopExecution
(#780) - Support for python3.8 (#753)
And various other minor bug fixes
