earthkit.meteo.vertical.array.geopotential_from_geopotential_height

earthkit.meteo.vertical.array.geopotential_from_geopotential_height(h)

Compute geopotential height from geopotential.

Parameters:

z (array-like) – Geopotential (m2/s2)

Returns:

Geopotential height (m)

Return type:

array-like

The computation is based on the following definition:

\[z = gh\; g\]

where \(g\) is the gravitational acceleration on the surface of the Earth (see meteo.constants.g)
