ProfileExtrapolation.profile_extrapolation(lat: float, month: int, z: ndarray, q: Tuple[ndarray, ndarray, ndarray]) → Tuple[ndarray, ndarray, ndarray, ndarray]

Extrapolation of atmospheres to be used to determine temperature, pressure and water-vapour pressure as a function of altitude and latitude, for calculating gaseous attenuation when more reliable local data are not available.

Parameters:

• lat (float) – Latitude (degree)

• month (int) – Month of the year

• z (np.ndarray) – Height (km)

• q (Tuple[np.ndarray, np.ndarray, np.ndarray]) – Pressure (hPa), Temperature (K) and Relative humisity (frac) profiles

Returns:

Height, Pressure, Temperature, RH extrapolated profiles

Return type:

Tuple[np.ndarray, np.ndarray, np.ndarray, np.ndarray]
