cruitial is the vertical coordinate system,.
| Level type | Elevation present or can be derived (as z or h) | Vertical grid type | Surface data can be used |
|---|---|---|---|
| pressure | yes | layered | yes |
| pressure | no | regular | no |

Pressure level data with elevation
This exercise demonstrate how to use pressure level ECMWF GRIB data with VAPOR. We will work with fields from yesterday's forecast on a low resolution grid over Europe.

Model level data with elevation
This exercise demonstrate how to use model level ECMWF GRIB data with VAPOR. We will work with fields from yesterday's forecast on a low resolution grid over Europe. The steps required are very similar to the previous exercise (with pressure levels) to only exception is the handling of geopotential.
