Parameters
Data plotted on the skew-T diagram consist of temperatures, dewpoints, and wind speed and direction. The design of the skew-T diagram allows for the computation of a multitude of unreported meteorological quantities related to temperature, humidity, stability, and other thermodynamic properties of the atmosphere.
This section documents the methodology for determining various calculated quantities or parameters from a sounding plotted on the skew-T diagram.
