Isobaric height diagnostic: use ln(p) interp of pressure to w points #1042

Closed skamaroc closed 1 year ago

skamaroc commented 1 year ago

The isobaric height diagnostic interpolated pressure as a function of height to the w points to later interpolate height to pressure levels. This introduces a low bias in the diagnosed height fields. Interpolating ln(p) to the w levels alleviates this bias.
