Dear GrADS users<br>Hi<br><br>I'm recently working on a project about the vertical speed of air in different elevations. I'm using CFSR data in grb2 format. these data sets have omega (Pa/s) instead . I tried to convert them to vertical velocity (m/s) using this equation:<br>
omega= - rho * g * w ( or omega=- (P/RT) *g * w )<br>but the results in (m/s ) are in the order of 10^-3. I know it's not a Grads problem. but I'm an aerospace student and I need to find out if anything is wrong with this equation or the results or not. ( I'm not really familiar with meteorology!)<br>
<br>for example:<br>if omega= 0.10595<br>& g=9.807<br>& R=287<br>& P= 100000 Pa<br>& T=294.27<br>resulted value is W=0.00912 (m/s) <br>
<br><br>Thanks in advance,<br clear="all">Alireza <br>
