bruntVaisallaOmegaSquared {aiRthermo} | R Documentation |
Brunt-Vaisalla (angular) frequency (squared)
Description
Brunt-Vaisalla (angular) frequency (aquared, s^{-2}
) considering hydrostatic equilibrium. P is used as a vertical level.
Usage
bruntVaisallaOmegaSquared(Ps, Ts, ws, consts = export_constants())
Arguments
Ps |
A vector with pressure values (Pa). |
Ts |
A vector with temperature values (K). |
ws |
A vector with mixing ratio values (kg/kg). |
consts |
The constants defined in aiRthermoConstants data are necessary. The constants g and Rd are used. |
Details
The angular frequency (squared, s^{-2}
) is returned in order to avoid complex numbers.
Value
The Brunt-Vaisalla (angular) frequency (squared) is returned.
Note
For stable atmospheres, should be positive at every level. Ps, Ts and ws are 1D arrays.
