 - [x] Closes #3480
 - [x] Tests added
 - [x] Passes `black . && mypy . && flake8`
 - [x] Fully documented, including `whats-new.rst` for all changes and `api.rst` for new API

But this is my first time digging into the xarray source code, so please let me know if this issue is more complex.","{""url"": ""https://api.github.com/repos/pydata/xarray/issues/3504/reactions"", ""total_count"": 0, ""+1"": 0, ""-1"": 0, ""laugh"": 0, ""hooray"": 0, ""confused"": 0, ""heart"": 0, ""rocket"": 0, ""eyes"": 0}",,,13221727,pull
