sea_level_pressure_from_barometric: Barometric/Sea-level pressure conversion

In paleolimbot/bsrto: Access Data from the Barrow Strait Real Time Observatory

Description

Formula from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atmospheric_pressure.

Usage

sea_level_pressure_from_barometric(
  p,
  h,
  g = 9.80665,
  M = 0.0289644,
  R0 = 8.31447,
  T0 = 288.15
)

barometric_pressure_from_sea_level(
  p0,
  h,
  g = 9.80665,
  M = 0.0289644,
  R0 = 8.31447,
  T0 = 288.15
)

Arguments

p	Measured barometric pressure (can be any pressure unit)
h	Elevation of barometric pressure measurement in meters
g	Accelleration due to gravity in m/s2
M	Molar mass of dry air (kg / mol)
R0	Universal gas constant (mol-Kelvins)
T0	Sea level standard temperature (Kelvins)
p0	Pressure at sea level in (can be any pressure unit)

Value

The corrected pressure in the same unit as p or p0.
