calc_bernoulli: Bernoulli function

In meteoEVT: Computation and Visualization of Energetic and Vortical Atmospheric Quantities

Bernoulli function

Description

Calculates the Bernoulli function, i.e. total energy density, as sum of potential, kinetic and thermal energy density

Usage

calc_bernoulli(t_fld, u_fld, v_fld, w_fld, phi_fld)

Arguments

t_fld	temperature field [K]
u_fld	zonal velocity field [m/s]
v_fld	meridional velocity field [m/s]
w_fld	vertical velocity field [m/s]
phi_fld	geopotential height [gpm]

Value

Bernoulli function field [m^2/s^2]

Examples

myfile=system.file("extdata", "era5_storm-zeynep.nc", package = "meteoEVT")
data = readin_era5(myfile)
bernoulli=calc_bernoulli(data$temp,data$u,data$v,data$w,data$z)
