MARS/Dissemination

Specifies the type of horizontal level.

...

The levtype value has direct implications on valid levelist values. Common values are: model level (ml), pressure level (pl), surface (sfc), potential vorticity (pv), potential temperature (pt) and depth (dp). Note ocean data is archived with levtype=dp, and wave data is archived with levtype=sfc.

Examples:

levtype=sfc            # surface

levtype=surface     # surface

expver=ml               # model levels

expver=pt                # potential vorticity level
