Misleading unit description in document List of convective parameters in RH_ parameters #69

Description

@IskraAI

Greetings,

I observed that the units for RH_ parameters are described as % inside the document List of convective parameters:
https://bczernecki.github.io/thundeR/articles/convective-parameters-and-technical-details.html

However, when computing parameters via "sounding_compute" function, I noticed that the values returned are just fractions - so values in interval [0,1].

[85] RH_01km – mean relative humidity between surface and 1 km AGL layer. Units are %.
[86] RH_02km – mean relative humidity between surface and 2 km AGL layer. Units are %.
[87] RH_14km – mean relative humidity between 1 and 4 km AGL layer. Units are %.
[88] RH_25km – mean relative humidity between 2 and 5 km AGL layer. Units are %.
[89] RH_36km – mean relative humidity between 3 and 6 km AGL layer. Units are %.
[90] RH_HGL – mean relative humidity in a hail growth layer (between 0°C and −20°C). Units are %.

As descriptions are potentially misleading, I report it here.

Thank you for developing and maintaining ThundeR package!

Have a good day.
