OceanParcels/parcels: Parcels v2.1.5: a Lagrangian Ocean Analysis tool for the petascale age

Description

Parcels v2.1.5 builds upon previous versions of Parcels and both improved the reliability as well as the efficiency and versatility of Parcels. In particular

  1. Speed up by perhaps a factor 10(!) in some use-cases by switching data structure of ParticleSet from Array-of-Structures to Structure-of-Arrays (#678, thanks @angus-g!)
  2. Support for sigma-grids with time-varying depth dimensions (#660, see also this tutorial)
  3. Further fixes some issues with dask chunking (# 764, #774, #776)
  4. Improves reliability when dt is very small (< 0.001 s) (#762)
  5. Support for a new ErrorCode StopExecution (#780)
  6. Support for python3.8 (#753)

And various other minor bug fixes
