<p>This is the beta-release of Parcels v2. Compared to the last v1.1.1 release, there are three important changes</p>
<p>1) The order of arguments for Field interpolation has changed. This is now <code>field[time, depth, lat, lon]</code>, which is consistent with the dimension order in which data is stored in the <code>field.data</code> numpy array (#503 and #276).</p>
<p>2) The <code>dt</code> argument has been dropped from Kernel definitions, so that the only arguments allowed in a Kernel are <code>def kernelfunc(fieldset, particle, time)</code> (#503)</p>
<p>3) Interpolation for C-grids is now done in a fluxes framework, instead of a velocity framework. The details of this will be presented in a manuscript, to be submitted soon (#499 and #494)</p>
<p><strong>Note that 1) and 2) above mean that Kernels written for Parcels v1 will break in this Parcels v2.</strong> If you're updating to this v2.0.0beta, therefore please update your custom Kernels.</p>
<p>Other updates since v1.1.1 are:</p>
<ul>
<li>New <code>FieldSet.from_xarray_dataset()</code> method to directly read <code>xarray.DataSet</code> objects (#476)</li>
<li>An optional argument in <code>Field.show()</code> to control which depth level to plot (#478)</li>
<li><code>ParticleSet.from_field()</code> now also implemented for Curvilinear Fields (#496)</li>
<li>And numerous small bug fixes</li>
</ul>
