Arguments

hus_s

surface specific humidity [lon, lat, time] at 2 meter (kg/kg).

pa_s

surface pressure [lon, lat, time] (hPa).

hus_pl

specific humidity [lon, lat, lev, time] on pressure level (kg/kg).

pa_pl

pressure profile [lev] in descending manner (hPa).

nthreads

an integer specifying the number of threads to use for computation (OpenMP). Default is 1.

Value
