earthkit.meteo.thermo

Thermodynamic functions.

The API is split into two layers:

• Low-level implementations are in the array, xarray and fieldlist submodules.

• High-level functions are in this module and dispatch to backend implementations based on input type.

Submodules

• earthkit.meteo.thermo.array
• earthkit.meteo.thermo.fieldlist
• earthkit.meteo.thermo.xarray
