Calculating the trend in European temperatures
You want to calculate the average European temperature from 1980 to present using the ERA5 dataset. This data is a Zarr dataset of monthly mean temperature and precipitation, on a grid of latitudes and longitudes. The Zarr file is chunked so that each subfile on the disk is an array of 15 latitudes, 15 longitudes, and 12 months.
xarray
has been imported for you as xr

Instructions
- Use
xarray
to open the"data/era_eu.zarr"
dataset. - Calculate the mean of the
temp
DataArray over thelat
andlon
dimensions. - Perform a rolling mean over the
time
dimension using a window size of 12. - Plot the resulting time series of
temp_rolling_mean
