jcm.physics_interface

Date: 2/7/2024 Physics module that interfaces between the dynamics and the physics of the model. Should be agnostic to the specific physics being used.

Functions

dynamics_state_to_physics_state(state, dynamics)	Convert the state variables from the dynamics to the physics state variables.
filter_tendencies(dynamics_tendency, ...)	Apply dinosaur horizontal diffusion filter to the dynamics divergence tendency
get_physical_tendencies(state, dynamics, ...)	Compute the physical tendencies given the current state and a list of physics functions.
physics_state_to_dynamics_state(...)	Convert state variables from the physics (nodal space) back to the dynamical core (spectral space).
physics_tendency_to_dynamics_tendency(...)	Convert the physics tendencies to the dynamics tendencies.
verify_state(state)	Ensure the physical validity of the state variables.
verify_tendencies(state, tendencies, time_step)	Adjust tendencies to prevent the state from becoming physically invalid in the next time step.

Classes

Physics()
PhysicsState(u_wind, v_wind, temperature, ...)	Represents the state of the atmosphere in physical (nodal) space.
PhysicsTendency(u_wind, v_wind, temperature, ...)	Represents the tendencies (rates of change) of physical variables.
