monarchs.physics.lid.heateqn.lid_heateqn_solver(cell, met_data, dt, dz)

Call the heat equation solver to calculate the updated temperature at time t1 = t0 + dt.

Parameters:

• cell (numpy structured array) – Element of the model grid we are operating on.

• met_data (numpy structured array) – Meteorological data for the current timestep.

• dt (float) – Timestep [s].

• dz (float) – Lid layer thickness [m].

Returns:

• T (array_like, float, dimension(vert_grid_lid)) – Lid temperature profile, rounded to 8 decimal places [K].

• success (bool) – True if the iteration converged.

• n_iter (int) – Number of Newton iterations used.
