moist_rho_rh(p, T, rh, qm=0)

Compute the arithmetic circular mean, ignoring NaNs.

moist_rho_q(p, T, q, qm=0)

Compute the arithmetic circular mean, ignoring NaNs.
moist_rho_rh(p, T, rh, qm=0)[source]

Compute the arithmetic circular mean, ignoring NaNs.

Parameters

  • p – Pressure in Pa

  • T – Temperature in K

  • rh – Relative humidity in Pa/Pa

  • qm (optional) – sum of mixing ratios in kg/kg of other species which contribute to the air mass! (ice, snow, cloud etc.)

Returns

Density of moist air [kg/m^3]

Return type

float

Example

moist_rho_rh(p,T,rh,q_ice,q_snow,q_rain,q_cloud,q_graupel,q_hail)

moist_rho_q(p, T, q, qm=0)[source]

Compute the arithmetic circular mean, ignoring NaNs.

Parameters

  • p – Pressure in Pa

  • T – Temperature in K

  • q – specific humidity in kg/kg

  • qm (optional) – sum of mixing ratios in kg/kg of other species which contribute to the air mass! (ice, snow, cloud etc.)

Returns

Density of moist air [kg/m^3]

Return type

float

Example

moist_rho_q(p,T,q,q_ice,q_snow,q_rain,q_cloud,q_graupel,q_hail)
