}

All the variables stored in the sounding.

The upper air profile variables are stored in parallel vectors. If a profile lacks a certain variable, e.g. cloud fraction, that whole vector has length 0 instead of being full of missing values.

Fields

station number, USAF number, eg 727730

Valid time of sounding

Difference in model initialization time and valid_time in hours.

Latitude of grid point used to make sounding.

Longitude of grid point used to make sounding.

Elevation of grid point in meters, this is in model terrain, not necessarily the same as the real world.

Methods

impl Sounding
[src]

[src]

Validates the sounding with some simple sanity checks. For instance, checks that pressure decreases with height.

[src]

Returns the maximum and minimum extents. (max_pressure, min_pressure, (t_min_ext, p_min_ext),(t_max_ext, p_max_ext))

Trait Implementations

impl Default for Sounding
[src]

[src]

Returns the "default value" for a type. Read more
