## Overview

-
ACCESS-MOPPeR v2.0.0a is a CMORisation tool designed to post-process ACCESS model output. This version represents a significant rewrite of the original MOPPeR, focusing on usability rather than raw performance. It introduces a more flexible and user-friendly Python API that can be integrated into Jupyter notebooks and other workflows.

ACCESS-MOPPeR allows for targeted CMORisation of individual variables and is specifically designed to support the ACCESS-ESM1.6 configuration prepared for CMIP7 FastTrack. However, ocean variable support remains limited in this alpha release.

## Background
21
-
ACCESS-MOPPeR builds upon the original APP4 and MOPPeR frameworks, which were initially developed for CMIP5 and later extended for CMIP6. These tools leveraged CMOR3 and CMIP6 data request files to produce CF-compliant datasets aligned with ESGF standards. MOPPeR introduced the **mopdb** tool, allowing users to create custom mappings and CMOR table definitions.
26
+
ACCESS-MOPPeR v2 is a complete rewrite of the original APP4 and MOPPeR frameworks. Unlike previous versions, it does **not** depend on CMOR; instead, it leverages modern Python libraries such as **xarray** and **dask** for efficient processing of NETCDF files. This approach streamlines the workflow, improves flexibility, and enhances integration with contemporary data science tools.
27
+
28
+
While retaining the core concepts of "custom" and "cmip" modes, ACCESS-MOPPeR v2 unifies these workflows within a single configuration file, focusing on usability and extensibility for current and future CMIP projects.
See the [Getting Started notebook](notebooks/Getting_started.ipynb) and the [docs](docs/) folder for detailed usage and API documentation.

This rewrite retains key features of the original MOPPeR while enhancing usability. The differentiation between "custom" and "cmip" modes remains, but both modes now follow a unified workflow defined in a single configuration file.
