# xarray.IndexVariable.isel

`IndexVariable.``isel`(indexers: Mapping[Hashable, Any] = None, **indexers_kwargs) → VariableType

  Return a new array indexed along the specified dimension(s).

  Parameters: | **indexers ({dim: indexer, ..}) – Keyword arguments with names matching dimensions and values given by integers, slice objects or arrays.
  Returns: | obj – A new Array with the selected data and dimensions. In general, the new variable’s data will be a view of this variable’s data, unless numpy fancy indexing was triggered by using an array indexer, in which case the data will be a copy.
  Return type: | Array object
