jcm.physics_interface.PhysicsState

class jcm.physics_interface.PhysicsState(u_wind, v_wind, temperature, specific_humidity, geopotential, normalized_surface_pressure, tracers=None)

Represents the state of the atmosphere in physical (nodal) space.

This structure holds the atmospheric variables on a grid, which are used as inputs for the physics parameterizations.

Attributes:

u_windjnp.ndarray

Zonal (east-west) component of wind.

v_windjnp.ndarray

Meridional (north-south) component of wind.

temperaturejnp.ndarray

Atmospheric temperature.

specific_humidityjnp.ndarray

The mass of water vapor per unit mass of moist air.

geopotentialjnp.ndarray

The gravitational potential energy per unit mass at a given height.

normalized_surface_pressurejnp.ndarray

Surface pressure normalized by a reference pressure p0.
