CF-Xarray

CF-Xarray is a lightweight Python library that extends Xarray objects with an accessor (`.cf`) to interpret and utilize Climate and Forecast (CF) metadata conventions. It simplifies data analysis workflows by allowing users to refer to geophysical quantities by their standard CF names (e.g., 'latitude' instead of 'lat'), making code more generic across diverse CF-compliant datasets. The library is actively maintained as part of the `xarray-contrib` organization, with frequent releases.
