Arguments

pressure

pressure [hPa]

altitude

altitude [meters]

temp

temperature [degree Celsius]

dpt

dew point temperature [degree Celsius]

wd

wind direction [azimuth in degrees]

ws

wind speed [knots]

export_profile

possibility to export interpolated profile on the levels defined in accuracy configuration

accuracy

accuracy of computations where 3 = high (slow), 2 = medium (recommended), 1 = low (fast)

interpolate_step

interpolation step to be used for vertical interpolation. Valid only if `accuracy` is set to 3 (default is 5 m)

meanlayer_bottom_top

(optional) vector of length 2 for bottom and top heights used for computing parcel starting parameters; default: 0, 500

storm_motion

(optional) for moving storms only - one can define vector of length two with wind speed (m/s) and wind directions (degrees) that will be used to compute adjusted SRH parameters
