Plot vertical wind speed profile

Description

Function for plotting wind speed profile. Can be launched as standalone function or coupled with pre-drawn Skew-T diagram.

Usage

sounding_wind(pressure, ws, ptop = 100, yaxs = TRUE, ...)

Arguments

pressure	pressure [hPa]
ws	wind speed [knots]
ptop	pressure top level [hPa] to be used for plotting wind speed. Valid options should be < 200 hPa (100 by default)
yaxs	logic. Whether to add labels to heights on Y lab
...	extra graphic arguments

Value

graphical representation of vertical wind speed profile

Examples

# load examplary dataset:
data("sounding_vienna")
attach(sounding_vienna)
