NCAR/CGD/AMP Generator for atmosphere hybrid-sigma coefficients.
Provides command-line capability to produce hybrid-sigma coefficients using makelev.py.
No installation requirements. Just run as command-line in an environment meeting the Requirements.
To run basic calculation, requires numpy and python >= 3.6 (because it uses f-strings).
To save to netCDF, requires xarray.
Tests (when functional) require pytest.
