Mac OMP Errors

If you encounter the error OMP: Error #15: Initializing libomp.dylib, but found libomp.dylib already initialized. it is most likely that you are trying to use the sasktran2 wheel package (through pip) inside a conda environment. The best solution is to instead install the conda-forge package.

Alternatively, if that is not possible, or you are getting the error outside of a conda environment, you can try adding

import os

os.environ["KMP_DUPLICATE_LIB_OK"] = "TRUE"

To the top of your script.
