Characterising the zonally asymmetric features of the Southern Hemisphere extratropical circulation and their influence on regional climate variability: supplementary metadata

This page contains supplementary material relating to the following PhD thesis:Irving D (2016). Characterising the zonally asymmetric features of the Southern Hemisphere extratropical circulation and their influence on regional climate variability. PhD thesis, University of Melbourne. https://minerva-access.unimelb.edu.au/handle/11343/91740In particular, it contains metadata files (.met) for each of the figures in that thesis, outlining the history of command line entries that were executed from initial data download right up to the generation of the figure. A version controlled (using Git) repository of the code referred to in those .met files is also included (github_DamienIrving_climate-analysis.zip), however readers are encouraged to view that code at the GitHub repository linked to below instead (because then they can view any subsequent improvements to the code and/or submit suggested improvements / pull requests). It should be noted that it is my daily repository, meaning there is code in there that does not directly relate to the paper - the .met files explain which code is relevant.The motivation for this approach to publishing reproducible computational research is outlined in the thesis and also at:Irving D (2016). A minimum standard for publishing computational results in the weather and climate sciences.
