LE.to.ET R Documentation
Conversion between Latent Heat Flux and Evapotranspiration
Description
converts evaporative water flux from mass (ET=evapotranspiration)
to energy (LE=latent heat flux) units, or vice versa.
Usage
LE.to.ET(LE, Tair)
ET.to.LE(ET, Tair)
Arguments
LE
Latent heat flux (W m-2)
Tair
Air temperature (deg C)
ET
Evapotranspiration (kg m-2 s-1)
Details
The conversions are given by:
ET = LE/λ
LE = λ ET
where λ is the latent heat of vaporization (J kg-1) as calculated by
latent.heat.vaporization.
Examples
# LE of 200 Wm-2 and air temperature of 25degC
LE.to.ET(200,25)
