recomputing geopotential height after pressure level interpolation

[atmospherics]

Dear all,

I don't whether this is right thing to do but after interpolating the variables from CESM2 hybrid-sigma levels to pressure levels, should we recompute the geopotential height from the interpolated temperature? Is this recommended?

This is a good question for the CAM forum.

If you have geopotential height output from the model on hybrid-sigma levels then you can just interpolate that to pressure levels.
