Parcels v2.2.1 builds upon previous versions of Parcels and fixes a number of bugs. Furthermore, it also adds the following features:

  • Renaming parcels.random to parcels.ParcelsRandom (#912). Note that this change is not backward-compatible, so update your code
  • Support for MITgcm output on C-grids where the U and V are on the west and north of the f-points (#897)
  • Support for MOM5 output on B-grids, where the W-fields are given below the U and V-fields (#923)
  • Support larger ParticleSets by changing Particle-ID type to int64 (#934)
  • Added a depth_units keyword for FieldSet.from_pop() to support depth units in both 'm' and 'cm' (#857)
  • New tutorials on how to sample Fields and how to postprocess Parcels output (#915 and #929)
  • Control over Cartopy feature options (coastline, land colour etc) in plotTrajectoriesFile() (#939, thanks to @axnsantana)
  • Support for math.nan and != operators in JIT Kernels (#908)
  • Support for applyConversion=False in Field Interpolation (#898)
  • Support to set the write status of a Variable after it's been created via ParticleFile.set_variable_write_status() (#892)

Plus a large number of minor bug fixes
