xarray.DataArray.bfill

DataArray.bfill(self, dim: Hashable, limit: int = None) → 'DataArray'

Fill NaN values by propogating values backward

Requires bottleneck.

Parameters
  • dim (str) – Specifies the dimension along which to propagate values when filling.

  • limit (int, default None) – The maximum number of consecutive NaN values to backward fill. In other words, if there is a gap with more than this number of consecutive NaNs, it will only be partially filled. Must be greater than 0 or None for no limit.
