[ncl-talk] questions on using vibeta to do mass-weighted vertical integration

[Hui Ding]

Hi everyone,

I am trying to calculate mass-weighted vertical integration of latent
heating from CESM LENS. I have a few questions on vibeta.

1. Latent heating is on hybrid levels in CAM5. Is it necessary to
interpolate data on to pressure levels prior to using vibeta?

2. Is it correct to use pbot and ptop to specify the range for vertical
integration? What if surface pressure is larger or smaller than pbot?

Thank you very much!
Best,
Hui
