pyhector

pyhector is a Python interface for the simple global climate carbon-cycle model Hector.

pyhector makes the simple climate model Hector easily installable and usable from Python and can for example be used in the analysis of mitigation scenarios, in integrated assessment models, complex climate model emulation, and uncertainty analyses.

Hector is written in C++ and developed at the Pacific Northwest National Laboratory.

See the Hector repository and documentation website for further information.

The Python interface pyhector is developed by Sven Willner and Robert Gieseke.

Pyhector uses pybind11 to wrap Hector’s API. The version of Hector used can be read using Pyhector’s __hector_version__ field.
