Description

Adds an entrypoint to compute CAPE/CIN on AIFS outputs. Based on this PR in earthkit-meteo:ecmwf/earthkit-meteo#163

Open questions:

  • How do we handle output types of cape/cin? The current implementation is based on the assumption that we want to output mucape/mucin, mlcape50/mlcin50, and mlcape100/mucape100. Do we want to make this configurable? How do we handle paramIds?
  • update to changes in earthkit-meteo API for cape/cin
  • Need to test if processing the whole globe at once works for higher spatial resolutions.

Out of scope:

  • IFS set-up (since cape/cin is an output of the IFS)
  • maxCAPE/maxCIN (as it requires hourly resolution)
