Module sounding_analysis::experimental::fire

Experimental sounding analysis for fire weather.

Structs

BlowUpAnalysis

This characterizes how much heating it would take to cause a plume to “blow up”.

PlumeAscentAnalysis

Result of lifting a parcel represntative of a fire plume core.

PlumeHeatingAnalysis

Various analysis results of lifting plumes parcels vs the heating supplied.

Functions

analyze_plume_parcel

Lift a parcel until the net CAPE is zero.

blow_up

Find the parcel that causes the plume to blow up by finding the maximum derivative of the equilibrium level vs parcel heating.

calc_plumes

Generate a series of PlumeAscentAnalysiss for a given sounding starting at the mixed layer parcel and warming it by increment until it has gone max_range degrees.

create_plume_parcel_from

Create a new parcel assuming a starting parcel and a temperature increment.

lift_plume_parcel

Lift a parcel until the net CAPE is zero. Lift it at least 100 hPa above the surface.

plume_heating_analysis

Do a PlumeHeatingAnalysis.
