Parameters:

  • lat – The latitude of the point. North hemisphere is positive from 0 to 90. South hemisphere is negative from 0 to -90.

  • lon – The longitude of the point. Western hemisphere (west of Greenwich Prime Meridian) is negative 0 to -180. The eastern hemisphere (east of the Greenwich Prime Meridian) is positive 0 to 180.

  • variables (str) –

    At the command line can supply a comma separated list of variable names. Using the Python API needs to be a Python list of strings.

    The current list of available variables are in the following table.
