    """Open and decode a dataset from a file or file-like object.

    Parameters
    ----------
    filename_or_obj : str, Path, file or xarray.backends.*DataStore
        Strings and Path objects are interpreted as a path to a netCDF file
        or an OpenDAP URL and opened with python-netCDF4, unless the filename
        ends with .gz, in which case the file is gunzipped and opened with
        scipy.io.netcdf (only netCDF3 supported). Byte-strings or file-like
        objects are opened by scipy.io.netcdf (netCDF3) or h5py (netCDF4/HDF).
    group : str, optional
        Path to the netCDF4 group in the given file to open (only works for
        netCDF4 files).
    decode_cf : bool, optional
        Whether to decode these variables, assuming they were saved according
        to CF conventions.
    mask_and_scale : bool, optional
        If True, replace array values equal to `_FillValue` with NA and scale
        values according to the formula `original_values * scale_factor +
        add_offset`, where `_FillValue`, `scale_factor` and `add_offset` are
        taken from variable attributes (if they exist).  If the `_FillValue` or
        `missing_value` attribute contains multiple values a warning will be
        issued and all array values matching one of the multiple values will
        be replaced by NA. mask_and_scale defaults to True except for the
        pseudonetcdf backend.
    decode_times : bool, optional
        If True, decode times encoded in the standard NetCDF datetime format
        into datetime objects. Otherwise, leave them encoded as numbers.
    autoclose : bool, optional
        If True, automatically close files to avoid OS Error of too many files
        being open.  However, this option doesn't work with streams, e.g.,
        BytesIO.
    concat_characters : bool, optional
        If True, concatenate along the last dimension of character arrays to
        form string arrays. Dimensions will only be concatenated over (and
        removed) if they have no corresponding variable and if they are only
        used as the last dimension of character arrays.
    decode_coords : bool, optional
        If True, decode the 'coordinates' attribute to identify coordinates in
        the resulting dataset.
    engine : {'netcdf4', 'scipy', 'pydap', 'h5netcdf', 'pynio', 'cfgrib', \
        'pseudonetcdf'}, optional
        Engine to use when reading files. If not provided, the default engine
        is chosen based on available dependencies, with a preference for
        'netcdf4'.
    chunks : int or dict, optional
        If chunks is provided, it used to load the new dataset into dask
        arrays. ``chunks={}`` loads the dataset with dask using a single
        chunk for all arrays.
    lock : False or duck threading.Lock, optional
        Resource lock to use when reading data from disk. Only relevant when
        using dask or another form of parallelism. By default, appropriate
        locks are chosen to safely read and write files with the currently
        active dask scheduler.
    cache : bool, optional
        If True, cache data loaded from the underlying datastore in memory as
        NumPy arrays when accessed to avoid reading from the underlying data-
        store multiple times. Defaults to True unless you specify the `chunks`
        argument to use dask, in which case it defaults to False. Does not
        change the behavior of coordinates corresponding to dimensions, which
        always load their data from disk into a ``pandas.Index``.
    drop_variables: string or iterable, optional
        A variable or list of variables to exclude from being parsed from the
        dataset. This may be useful to drop variables with problems or
        inconsistent values.
    backend_kwargs: dictionary, optional
        A dictionary of keyword arguments to pass on to the backend. This
        may be useful when backend options would improve performance or
        allow user control of dataset processing.
    use_cftime: bool, optional
        Only relevant if encoded dates come from a standard calendar
        (e.g. 'gregorian', 'proleptic_gregorian', 'standard', or not
        specified).  If None (default), attempt to decode times to
        ``np.datetime64[ns]`` objects; if this is not possible, decode times to
        ``cftime.datetime`` objects. If True, always decode times to
        ``cftime.datetime`` objects, regardless of whether or not they can be
        represented using ``np.datetime64[ns]`` objects.  If False, always
        decode times to ``np.datetime64[ns]`` objects; if this is not possible
        raise an error.

    Returns
    -------
    dataset : Dataset
        The newly created dataset.

    Notes
    -----
    ``open_dataset`` opens the file with read-only access. When you modify
    values of a Dataset, even one linked to files on disk, only the in-memory
    copy you are manipulating in xarray is modified: the original file on disk
    is never touched.

    """Open an DataArray from a file or file-like object containing a single
    data variable.

    This is designed to read netCDF files with only one data variable. If
    multiple variables are present then a ValueError is raised.

    Parameters
    ----------
    filename_or_obj : str, Path, file or xarray.backends.*DataStore
        Strings and Paths are interpreted as a path to a netCDF file or an
        OpenDAP URL and opened with python-netCDF4, unless the filename ends
        with .gz, in which case the file is gunzipped and opened with
        scipy.io.netcdf (only netCDF3 supported). Byte-strings or file-like
        objects are opened by scipy.io.netcdf (netCDF3) or h5py (netCDF4/HDF).
    group : str, optional
        Path to the netCDF4 group in the given file to open (only works for
        netCDF4 files).
    decode_cf : bool, optional
        Whether to decode these variables, assuming they were saved according
        to CF conventions.
    mask_and_scale : bool, optional
        If True, replace array values equal to `_FillValue` with NA and scale
        values according to the formula `original_values * scale_factor +
        add_offset`, where `_FillValue`, `scale_factor` and `add_offset` are
        taken from variable attributes (if they exist).  If the `_FillValue` or
        `missing_value` attribute contains multiple values a warning will be
        issued and all array values matching one of the multiple values will
        be replaced by NA. mask_and_scale defaults to True except for the
        pseudonetcdf backend.
    decode_times : bool, optional
        If True, decode times encoded in the standard NetCDF datetime format
        into datetime objects. Otherwise, leave them encoded as numbers.
    concat_characters : bool, optional
        If True, concatenate along the last dimension of character arrays to
        form string arrays. Dimensions will only be concatenated over (and
        removed) if they have no corresponding variable and if they are only
        used as the last dimension of character arrays.
    decode_coords : bool, optional
        If True, decode the 'coordinates' attribute to identify coordinates in
        the resulting dataset.
    engine : {'netcdf4', 'scipy', 'pydap', 'h5netcdf', 'pynio', 'cfgrib'}, \
        optional
        Engine to use when reading files. If not provided, the default engine
        is chosen based on available dependencies, with a preference for
        'netcdf4'.
    chunks : int or dict, optional
        If chunks is provided, it used to load the new dataset into dask
        arrays.
    lock : False or duck threading.Lock, optional
        Resource lock to use when reading data from disk. Only relevant when
        using dask or another form of parallelism. By default, appropriate
        locks are chosen to safely read and write files with the currently
        active dask scheduler.
    cache : bool, optional
        If True, cache data loaded from the underlying datastore in memory as
        NumPy arrays when accessed to avoid reading from the underlying data-
        store multiple times. Defaults to True unless you specify the `chunks`
        argument to use dask, in which case it defaults to False. Does not
        change the behavior of coordinates corresponding to dimensions, which
        always load their data from disk into a ``pandas.Index``.
    drop_variables: string or iterable, optional
        A variable or list of variables to exclude from being parsed from the
        dataset. This may be useful to drop variables with problems or
        inconsistent values.
    backend_kwargs: dictionary, optional
        A dictionary of keyword arguments to pass on to the backend. This
        may be useful when backend options would improve performance or
        allow user control of dataset processing.
    use_cftime: bool, optional
        Only relevant if encoded dates come from a standard calendar
        (e.g. 'gregorian', 'proleptic_gregorian', 'standard', or not
        specified).  If None (default), attempt to decode times to
        ``np.datetime64[ns]`` objects; if this is not possible, decode times to
        ``cftime.datetime`` objects. If True, always decode times to
        ``cftime.datetime`` objects, regardless of whether or not they can be
        represented using ``np.datetime64[ns]`` objects.  If False, always
        decode times to ``np.datetime64[ns]`` objects; if this is not possible
        raise an error.

    Notes
    -----
    This is designed to be fully compatible with `DataArray.to_netcdf`. Saving
    using `DataArray.to_netcdf` and then loading with this function will
    produce an identical result.

    All parameters are passed directly to `xarray.open_dataset`. See that
    documentation for further details.

    If combine='by_coords' then the function ``combine_by_coords`` is used to combine
    the datasets into one before returning the result, and if combine='nested' then
    ``combine_nested`` is used. The filepaths must be structured according to which
    combining function is used, the details of which are given in the documentation for
    ``combine_by_coords`` and ``combine_nested``. By default the old (now deprecated)
    ``auto_combine`` will be used, please specify either ``combine='by_coords'`` or
    ``combine='nested'`` in future. Requires dask to be installed. See documentation for
    details on dask [1]. Attributes from the first dataset file are used for the
    combined dataset.

    Parameters
    ----------
    paths : str or sequence
        Either a string glob in the form "path/to/my/files/*.nc" or an explicit list of
        files to open. Paths can be given as strings or as pathlib Paths. If
        concatenation along more than one dimension is desired, then ``paths`` must be a
        nested list-of-lists (see ``manual_combine`` for details). (A string glob will
        be expanded to a 1-dimensional list.)
    chunks : int or dict, optional
        Dictionary with keys given by dimension names and values given by chunk sizes.
        In general, these should divide the dimensions of each dataset. If int, chunk
        each dimension by ``chunks``. By default, chunks will be chosen to load entire
        input files into memory at once. This has a major impact on performance: please
        see the full documentation for more details [2].
    concat_dim : str, or list of str, DataArray, Index or None, optional
        Dimensions to concatenate files along.  You only need to provide this argument
        if any of the dimensions along which you want to concatenate is not a dimension
        in the original datasets, e.g., if you want to stack a collection of 2D arrays
        along a third dimension. Set ``concat_dim=[..., None, ...]`` explicitly to
        disable concatenation along a particular dimension.
    combine : {'by_coords', 'nested'}, optional
        Whether ``xarray.combine_by_coords`` or ``xarray.combine_nested`` is used to
        combine all the data. If this argument is not provided, `xarray.auto_combine` is
        used, but in the future this behavior will switch to use
        `xarray.combine_by_coords` by default.
    compat : {'identical', 'equals', 'broadcast_equals',
              'no_conflicts', 'override'}, optional
        String indicating how to compare variables of the same name for
        potential conflicts when merging:
         * 'broadcast_equals': all values must be equal when variables are
           broadcast against each other to ensure common dimensions.
         * 'equals': all values and dimensions must be the same.
         * 'identical': all values, dimensions and attributes must be the
           same.
         * 'no_conflicts': only values which are not null in both datasets
           must be equal. The returned dataset then contains the combination
           of all non-null values.
         * 'override': skip comparing and pick variable from first dataset
    preprocess : callable, optional
        If provided, call this function on each dataset prior to concatenation.
        You can find the file-name from which each dataset was loaded in
        ``ds.encoding['source']``.
    engine : {'netcdf4', 'scipy', 'pydap', 'h5netcdf', 'pynio', 'cfgrib'}, \
        optional
        Engine to use when reading files. If not provided, the default engine
        is chosen based on available dependencies, with a preference for
        'netcdf4'.
    lock : False or duck threading.Lock, optional
        Resource lock to use when reading data from disk. Only relevant when
        using dask or another form of parallelism. By default, appropriate
        locks are chosen to safely read and write files with the currently
        active dask scheduler.
    data_vars : {'minimal', 'different', 'all' or list of str}, optional
        These data variables will be concatenated together:
          * 'minimal': Only data variables in which the dimension already
            appears are included.
          * 'different': Data variables which are not equal (ignoring
            attributes) across all datasets are also concatenated (as well as
            all for which dimension already appears). Beware: this option may
            load the data payload of data variables into memory if they are not
            already loaded.
          * 'all': All data variables will be concatenated.
          * list of str: The listed data variables will be concatenated, in
            addition to the 'minimal' data variables.
    coords : {'minimal', 'different', 'all' or list of str}, optional
        These coordinate variables will be concatenated together:
         * 'minimal': Only coordinates in which the dimension already appears
           are included.
         * 'different': Coordinates which are not equal (ignoring attributes)
           across all datasets are also concatenated (as well as all for which
           dimension already appears). Beware: this option may load the data
           payload of coordinate variables into memory if they are not already
           loaded.
         * 'all': All coordinate variables will be concatenated, except
           those corresponding to other dimensions.
         * list of str: The listed coordinate variables will be concatenated,
           in addition the 'minimal' coordinates.
    parallel : bool, optional
        If True, the open and preprocess steps of this function will be
        performed in parallel using ``dask.delayed``. Default is False.
    join : {'outer', 'inner', 'left', 'right', 'exact, 'override'}, optional
        String indicating how to combine differing indexes
        (excluding concat_dim) in objects

        - 'outer': use the union of object indexes
        - 'inner': use the intersection of object indexes
        - 'left': use indexes from the first object with each dimension
        - 'right': use indexes from the last object with each dimension
        - 'exact': instead of aligning, raise `ValueError` when indexes to be
          aligned are not equal
        - 'override': if indexes are of same size, rewrite indexes to be
          those of the first object with that dimension. Indexes for the same
          dimension must have the same size in all objects.
    **kwargs : optional
        Additional arguments passed on to :py:func:`xarray.open_dataset`.

    Returns
    -------
    xarray.Dataset

    Notes
    -----
    ``open_mfdataset`` opens files with read-only access. When you modify values
    of a Dataset, even one linked to files on disk, only the in-memory copy you
    are manipulating in xarray is modified: the original file on disk is never
    touched.

    """Write multiple datasets to disk as netCDF files simultaneously.

    This function is intended for use with datasets consisting of dask.array
    objects, in which case it can write the multiple datasets to disk
    simultaneously using a shared thread pool.

    When not using dask, it is no different than calling ``to_netcdf``
    repeatedly.

    Parameters
    ----------
    datasets : list of xarray.Dataset
        List of datasets to save.
    paths : list of str or list of Paths
        List of paths to which to save each corresponding dataset.
    mode : {'w', 'a'}, optional
        Write ('w') or append ('a') mode. If mode='w', any existing file at
        these locations will be overwritten.
    format : {'NETCDF4', 'NETCDF4_CLASSIC', 'NETCDF3_64BIT',
              'NETCDF3_CLASSIC'}, optional

        File format for the resulting netCDF file:

        * NETCDF4: Data is stored in an HDF5 file, using netCDF4 API
          features.
        * NETCDF4_CLASSIC: Data is stored in an HDF5 file, using only
          netCDF 3 compatible API features.
        * NETCDF3_64BIT: 64-bit offset version of the netCDF 3 file format,
          which fully supports 2+ GB files, but is only compatible with
          clients linked against netCDF version 3.6.0 or later.
        * NETCDF3_CLASSIC: The classic netCDF 3 file format. It does not
          handle 2+ GB files very well.

        All formats are supported by the netCDF4-python library.
        scipy.io.netcdf only supports the last two formats.

        The default format is NETCDF4 if you are saving a file to disk and
        have the netCDF4-python library available. Otherwise, xarray falls
        back to using scipy to write netCDF files and defaults to the
        NETCDF3_64BIT format (scipy does not support netCDF4).
    groups : list of str, optional
        Paths to the netCDF4 group in each corresponding file to which to save
        datasets (only works for format='NETCDF4'). The groups will be created
        if necessary.
    engine : {'netcdf4', 'scipy', 'h5netcdf'}, optional
        Engine to use when writing netCDF files. If not provided, the
        default engine is chosen based on available dependencies, with a
        preference for 'netcdf4' if writing to a file on disk.
        See `Dataset.to_netcdf` for additional information.
    compute: boolean
        If true compute immediately, otherwise return a
        ``dask.delayed.Delayed`` object that can be computed later.

    Examples
    --------

    Save a dataset into one netCDF per year of data:
