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