Sounds like a great idea, thanks @behnam-zakeri! One minor comment: I would start this as a new method, maybe `df.validate_outliers()`...

thanks for raising this issue @Rlamboll - I'm currently working on a backend-refactoring to `pandas.Series`, maybe some of the related changes will fix this as a side benefit...

Summarizing bilateral discussions with (and manual benchmarking done by) @phackstock - this PR shows again some improvements in memory usage. One interesting observation is that the initial commit here https://github.com/danielhuppmann/pyam/commit/d652297fc39c9176be661bb508d97d42d02b795b,...

Running benchmarking with **pytest-monitor** and **memory-profiler** on the IAMC 1.5°C scenario ensemble data for all regions (~80MB, xlsx) shows that this PR increases time use by ~20%, but reduces memory...

Thanks @gidden, this sounds really useful! A few comments: 1.

Note that I implemented a similar solution in #598 for appending/merging IamDataFrame instances with both yearly data (as integer) and continuous-time resolution (as datetime). I also did a bit of...

Black carbon isn't listed in https://github.com/openclimatedata/globalwarmingpotentials and the derived emissions species in https://github.com/IAMconsortium/units, not sure why... Options for resolving this: 1. Add BC to those packages (no need to make...

Summarizing discussion in #207 - rather than deprecate `map_regions()`, the function should be refactored to parse the given mapping and call `aggregate_region()` or `downscale_region()` iteratively as required. This allows to...

there is now a dedicated `downscale_region()` function, but no work has been done on deprecating/refactoring the `map_regions()` function
