Functions/Subroutines

subroutine OTLIFT (SLINDX)
 

Detailed Description

otlift() computes SFC to 500mb lifted index.

This routine computes a surface to 500mb lifted index. The lifted parcel is from the first atmpspheric ETA layer (ie, the ETA layer closest to the model ground). The lifted index is the difference between this parcel's temperature at 500mb and the ambient 500mb temperature.

Parameters
[out]SLINDXlifted index.
