The basic state pressure () and density () are calculated by the hydrostatic equation (A.6) and the equation of state (A.7) given the basic state temperature

    (B.30)
    (B.31)

are calculated by using as follows.

    $\displaystyle \Pi _{0,j} = \left(\frac{P_{0,j}}{P_00}\right)^{\kappa },$ (B.32)
    $\displaystyle \Theta _{0,j} = \frac{T_{0,j}}{\Pi _{0,j}}.$ (B.33)
