Before you continue

You will need python version 3.7 or later, a version of git that is not ancient (everything newer than 2.10 should be good), and up-to-date pip (pip install -U pip) to install the ESM-Tools. That means that on the supported machines, you could for example use the following settings:

machine	Settings
albedo	$ module load git $ module load python
levante.dkrz.de	$ module load git $ module load python3
glogin.hlrn.de/blogin.hlrn.de	$ module load git $ module load anaconda3
juwels.fz-juelich.de	$ module load Stages/2022 $ module load git $ module load Python/3.9.6
aleph	$ module load git $ module load python

Note

Note that some machines might raise an error conflict netcdf_c when loading anaconda3. In that case you will need to swap netcdf_c with anaconda3:

$ module unload netcdf_c
$ module load anaconda3
