Solve Equation for Soil Temperature

Description

This function is called by soil_temperature_equation to solve the equation for soil temperature from \insertCiteBeckman1973;textualTrenchR. The function represents the integrand in the equation. It is not intended to be called directly.

Usage

soil_temperature_integrand(x, L, z0)

Arguments

x	numeric vector of volume fractions of soil constituents (e.g., clay, quartz, minerals other than quartz, organic matter, water, air). The volume fractions should sum to 1. Note that x and lambda values in the example correspond to these soil constituents.
L	numeric Monin-Obukhov length, a measure of the instability of heat flow \insertCiteBeckman1973TrenchR.
z0	numeric surface roughness (m).

Value

numeric integrand for soil temperature function.
