New functionality to get unmasked grids
At the moment to use the unmasked grids we need to know where they are saved and then do something like
geolon_t = xr.open_dataset('/g/data/ik11/grids/ocean_grid_025.nc').geolon_t
(see, e.g., https://cosima-recipes.readthedocs.io/en/latest/tutorials/Making_Maps_with_Cartopy.html#fixing-the-tripole)
I propose a functionality within the cosima-cookbook
which would be something like:
grid = cc.get_unmasked_grid(experiment)
The function, cc.get_unmasked_grid
would have the path the grid is hardcoded in and could be updated when that path changes. This way the weight of knowing where the grids are is taken off from the shoulders of the users and goes to the shoulders of the cookbook
developers.
