Module sounding_analysis::layers
[−]
[src]
This module finds significant layers such as the dendritic snow growth zone, the hail growth zone, and inversions.
Structs
Layer |
A layer in the atmosphere described by the values at the top and bottom. |
Functions
cold_surface_temperature_layer |
Assuming a warm layer aloft given by warm_layers, measure the cold surface layer. |
dendritic_snow_zone |
Find the dendtritic growth zones throughout the profile. It is unusual, but possible there is more than one. |
inversions |
Get all inversion layers up 500 mb. |
layer_agl |
Get a layer that has a certain thickness, like 3km or 6km. |
pressure_layer |
Get a layer defined by two pressure levels. |
warm_temperature_layer_aloft |
Assuming it is below freezing at the surface, this will find the warm layers aloft using the dry bulb temperature. Does not look above 500 hPa. |
warm_wet_bulb_layer_aloft |
Assuming the wet bulb temperature is below freezing at the surface, this will find the warm layers aloft using the wet bulb temperature. Does not look above 500 hPa. |
