Learning python:

Here are my favorites resources for Python beginers in STEM:

• There is an excellent Python tutorial provided by the Software Carpentry. It’s based on a real data analysis and I strongly recommend it.

• Chapter 1 from the Scientific Python lectures is also excellent.

• Finally, my own classes provide some resources as well, but they are more adapted to a classroom than self-study: beginner, advanced.

Learning climate analysis with python:

The excellent resources by Climatematch inspired some of my notes:

• comptools.climatematch.io

Project Pythia contains fantastic resources:

• Foundations

• CookBooks

Interactive:

• PROVIDE Climate Risk Dashboard

• Met Office Climate Data Portal (see local authority risk assessment)

• IPCC Interactive Atlas

• Climate Impact Explorer
