- geocat.comp.skewt_params.get_skewt_vars(p, tc, tdc, pro)#
This function processes the dataset values and returns a string element which can be used as a subtitle to replicate the styles of NCL Skew-T Diagrams.
- Parameters
p (
pint.Quantity
) – Pressure level input from datasettc (
pint.Quantity
) – Temperature for parcel from datasettdc (
pint.Quantity
) – Dew point temperature for parcel from datasetpro (
pint.Quantity
) – Parcel profile temperature converted to degC
- Returns
joined (
str
) – A string element with the format “Plcl=<value> Tlcl[C]=<value> Shox=<value> Pwat[cm]=<value> Cape[J]=<value>” where:Cape - Convective Available Potential Energy [J]
Pwat - Precipitable Water [cm]
Shox - Showalter Index (stability)
Plcl - Pressure of the lifting condensation level [hPa]
Tlcl - Temperature at the lifting condensation level [C]
