Python course for geosciences

In addition to the first steps with Linux and Jupyterhub on Levante, the 60 participants received an introduction to Python and the most important Python packages. These include NumPy and Xarray as well as the visualization packages Matplotlib and Cartopy. Between the lectures, the participants were able to apply their newly gained knowledge directly to many small tasks. If questions arose, the 6-person Python course team helped promptly.

The course material is available online at https://events.dkrz.de/event/71/.

The next beginners course is planned for March 24th to 28th, 2025 and will again be announced via https://events.dkrz.de and the DKRZ news emails.
