Hi,

I would like to use the program interpic to create an initial conditions
dataset with more than 18 levels. I know you need to pass a file in as an
argument to the program which contains the hybrid coefficients and the
midpoint and interface levels. The model comes with a file so you can
interpolate to 26 levels but I am interested in doing some runs at varying
amounts of levels. The problem is in being able to calculate the hyai,
hybi, hyam, and hybm coefficients so a file can be created for the program.
Does someone have a reference regarding the equations to calculate these
coefficients? Thanks for the help.

Regards,

Rob
