geocat.comp.interpolation.delta_pressure_hybrid(ps, hya, hyb, p0=100000.0)#

Calculates pressure layer thickness of a hybrid coordinate system

Parameters:

ps (xarray.DataArray, numpy.ndarray) – A multi-dimensional array of surface pressures (Pa)
hya (xarray.DataArray, numpy.ndarray) – A one-dimensional array of the hybrid A coefficients (unitless)
hyb (xarray.DataArray, numpy.ndarray) – A one-dimensional array of the hybrid B coefficients. Must be same type and length as hya (unitless)
p0 (float, optional) – Scalar numeric value equal to surface reference pressure (Pa). Defaults to 100000 Pa.

Returns:

output (xarray.DataArray, numpy.ndarray) – Computed pressure layer thicknesses. Will be same type as ps (Pa)
