calc.lw.net.base(dateTime, sw, Ts, lat, atm.press, airT, RH)

Arguments

ts.data

Object of class data.frame including the required variables(see details for list of variables and their units)

lat

latitude in degrees north

atm.press

atmospheric pressure in mb

dateTime

vector of datetime in POSIXct format

sw

numeric value of short wave radiation, W/m2

Ts

numeric value of surface water temperature, degC

airT

numeric value of air temperature, degC

Examples


## Base example
dateTime <- as.POSIXct("2013-12-30 23:00")
Uz <- 3
airT <- 20
RH <- 90
sw <- 800
wndZ <- 2
Kd <- 2
lat <- 54
lake.area <- 5000 
atm.press <- 1013
Ts <- 22
calc.lw.net.base(dateTime,sw,Ts,lat,atm.press,airT,RH)

## Example using timeseries in a data frame
data.path = system.file('extdata', package="LakeMetabolizer")

sp.data = load.all.data('sparkling', data.path)

# Prep the input data
ts.data	= sp.data$data #pull out just the timeseries data
atm.press	= 1018
lat	= sp.data$metadata$latitude

lwnet = calc.lw.net(ts.data, lat, atm.press)
plot(lwnet$datetime, lwnet$lwnet)
