Sorry I'm not familiar with the Xarray's groupby functions, I'll try several things before some experts jumping in. - Concat two std/mean fields along dayofyear, and reindex to the time index from the temperature data. Then you can do the (dset-mean)/std - Separate the temperature fields into two one-year chunks, reindex time to dayofyear, then do the calculation. - Flatten the spatial grid then use numpy to do the trick. I'm also interested in the right way to do it using built-in Xarray functions. I'm pretty sure there are some more clever ways to do this.
