- Description: Produces potential temperature from temperature and pressure
- Name: TempToPTemp
- Variable produced: potential_temperature
- Input Variables: air_temperature, surface_pressure
Optional Parameters:
- p0 - p-naught. Defaults to a value of 100,000 if the pressure units are Pa, or 1,000 if the units are hPa. If
p0
is not specified, and pressure units are also not specified in the pressure Field metadata, the algorithm fails. - kappa - Defaults to a value of 0.2857
- p0 - p-naught. Defaults to a value of 100,000 if the pressure units are Pa, or 1,000 if the units are hPa. If
