Postprocessing
==============

A script is provided to create a multi-model bar chart using results from multiple runs of the sea ice driver. This script can be found in ./scripts/sea_ice_figures.py.

Example command: ::

python sea_ice_figures.py --filelist 'path/to/models/*/sea_ice_metrics.json' --output_path '.'


A wildcard '*' can be used to glob multiple folders of results. The final path in the --filelist parameter must be the sea_ice_metrics.json file. The --output_path parameter can be any valid path.
