flasc.utilities.circular_statistics.calc_wd_mean_radial#
- flasc.utilities.circular_statistics.calc_wd_mean_radial(angles_array_deg, axis=0, nan_policy='omit')[source]#
Compute the mean wind direction over a given axis.
Assumes that the input angles are specified in degrees, and returns the mean wind direction in degrees. Wrapper for scipy.stats.circmean
- Parameters:
angles_array_deg (numpy array) -- Array of angles in degrees
axis (int) -- Axis along which to calculate the mean Default is 0
nan_policy (str) -- How to handle NaN values. Default is 'omit'
- Returns:
Mean wind direction in degrees
- Return type:
np.array
