Description
Hello metpy community,
Would a function to calculate PBL height from sounding information be within the scope of metpy? Hennemuth and Lammert (2006) describe some of the common approaches, which include 1) a bulk richardson number, 2) parcel theory, and a 3) humidity/potential temperature gradient based approach. Maybe there are some other methods that I don't know about. This is something that I can try and contribute if it is within scope. Thanks!
