# Description:
# Calculate Foliar Moisture Content on a specified day.

#
# Args:
# LAT: Latitude (decimal degrees)
# LONG: Longitude (decimal degrees)
# ELV: Elevation (metres)
# DJ: Day of year (offeren referred to as julian date)
# D0: Date of minimum foliar moisture content

# Returns:
# FMC: Foliar Moisture Content
