Cloud Regime Error Metric

This Python code calculates the cloud regime error metric (CREMpd) documented in Williams and Webb (2009). The CREMpd is a single scalar metric which describes the ability of the model to simulate the correct radiative properties and frequency of occurrence of large-scale cloud regimes. The cloud regimes are defined as grid-boxes sharing similar daily mean cloud top pressures, optical depths and cloud covers.
