Recipe structure upgrade
Use this template as the starting point for new recipes and how-to guides. It emphasizes reproducibility, clarity, and links to the cube grammar.

Title
A concise name that highlights the objective (e.g., "Compute NDVI anomalies for fire events").
Objective
- What question does the recipe answer?
- What cube(s) or datasets are required?
- What time span and spatial extent are expected?
Prerequisites
- Environment setup (e.g.,
pip install cubedynamics) - Data access assumptions (local files, cloud endpoints, authentication)
- References to Datasets and Capabilities
Steps
- Load or define the cube: include dimension names and resolution checks.
- Construct the pipeline: list verbs with short rationales and parameter choices.
- Inspect intermediate results: plots, summaries, or assertions that validate semantics.
- Summarize outputs: describe expected products (arrays, figures, derived cubes).
Interpretation and caveats
- Notes on uncertainty, resolution mismatch, or assumptions
- Links to Methods & Citation for reporting
- Suggestions for extending the recipe with additional verbs
Reproducibility notes
- Record software versions and verb parameters
- Mention any external data lineage requirements
- Provide links back to the Concepts page for terminology
