# xarray.Dataset.integrate

#### Dataset.integrate(coord, datetime_unit=None)[[source]](https://github.com/pydata/xarray/blob/main/xarray/core/dataset.py#L8683-L8744)

Integrate along the given coordinate using the trapezoidal rule.

#### NOTE
This feature is limited to simple cartesian geometry, i.e. coord
must be one dimensional.

* **Parameters:**
  * **coord** ([hashable](../user-guide/terminology.html.md#term-name), or [sequence](https://docs.python.org/3/glossary.html#term-sequence) of [hashable](../user-guide/terminology.html.md#term-name)) – Coordinate(s) used for the integration.
  * **datetime_unit** (`{'W', 'D', 'h', 'm', 's', 'ms', 'us', 'ns', 'ps', 'fs', 'as', None}`, *optional*) – Specify the unit if datetime coordinate is used.
* **Returns:**
  **integrated** ([`Dataset`](xarray.Dataset.html.md#xarray.Dataset))
