v2.7.0

New Features:

• Added scatter plots for comparing annual mean long-term Absorption Optical Depth (AOD) Aerosol Absorption Optical Depth (AAOD) at 550 nm from AERONET measurements. Scripts and data contributed by @yfenganl
• Add cmip6 comparison box whisker plot. Scripts contributed by @golaz
• Add CMIP6 models + E3SM v1 v2, AMIP and HISTORICAL runs as baseline for box whisker plots and Taylor Diagrams
• Support Model only analysis in lat-lon set
• Add lat_lon_land annd lat_lon_river drivers and viewers supported in the main viewer.
• Integrate in ELM land variable pre-processing and MOSART river variables for lat-lon model vs model default run. (contributed by @darincomeau @jenniferholm and @hydrotian )
• Add a standalone script to generate a summary plot of E3SM diagnostics. by @ambrad
• Included a Metrics checker to check consistency between two lat-lon run.

Enhanced Features:

• Add AODDUST to lat_lon plots (model only)
• Add Q to zonal_mean_2d plots
• Add TREFMNAV/tasmin TREFMXAV/tasmax to core set
• Replace ERA Interim with ERA5 in core sets
• Update to MACv2 for AOD at 550nm diags

Major Fixes:

• Set regrid method to bilinear for a subset of variables with masks or missing data
• Fix and Enhancement for Diurnal Cycle of Precipitation
• Fix extreme values of Albedo from obs values over high latitudes by masking high latitude in lat-lon plot

Other Updates:

• Update DevOps tooling; Update black to fix click ImportError
• Add xarray and mache to conda env dependencies and remove dask
• Update input data path; nco invocation in pre-processing
• Fix FileNotFoundError for log file
