Exploratory data analysis with xarray

Xarray makes working with multi-dimensional data easier, just like pandas makes working with tabular data easier. Best of all, Xarray can use Dask in the background to help you process the data quickly and efficiently.

You have been tasked with analyzing the European weather dataset further. Now that you know how to use Xarray, you will start by doing some exploratory data analysis.

xarray has been imported for you as xr.

Instruções do exercício

Using Xarray's open_zarr() function, open the "data/era_eu.zarr" dataset.
Using the DataSet's .isel() method select the zeroth index on the time coordinate.
Select the 'temp' variable from the zeroth index ds_sel and plot it on ax1.
Select the 'precip' variable from the zeroth index ds_sel and plot it on ax2.
