lwbgt_input: Construct WBGT Input Records

In lwbgt: Reference-Compatible Outdoor Wet Bulb Globe Temperature

Construct WBGT Input Records

Description

Constructs one or more input rows. All arguments are required; scalar values are recycled to the common non-scalar length.

Usage

lwbgt_input(
  year, month, day, hour, minute, gmt_offset_hours, averaging_minutes,
  urban, latitude_deg_north, longitude_deg_east, solar_w_m2,
  pressure_hpa, air_temperature_c, relative_humidity_percent,
  wind_speed_m_s, wind_height_m, vertical_temperature_difference_c
)

Arguments

year, month, day, hour, minute	Integer-valued local date and time fields. A month of zero makes day a day-of-year value.
gmt_offset_hours	Local standard time minus GMT, in whole hours.
averaging_minutes	Input averaging interval, in minutes.
urban	Zero for rural wind scaling or one for urban wind scaling.
latitude_deg_north, longitude_deg_east	Coordinates in degrees north and degrees east.
solar_w_m2	Solar irradiance in watts per square metre.
pressure_hpa	Barometric pressure in hectopascals.
air_temperature_c	Dry-bulb air temperature in degrees Celsius.
relative_humidity_percent	Relative humidity in percent.
wind_speed_m_s	Wind speed in metres per second.
wind_height_m	Wind measurement height in metres.
vertical_temperature_difference_c	Upper-minus-lower temperature difference in degrees Celsius.

Value

A plain data frame with the 17 native input columns.

Examples

input <- lwbgt_input(
  year = 2024, month = 4, day = 15, hour = 14, minute = 30,
  gmt_offset_hours = 8, averaging_minutes = 60, urban = 1,
  latitude_deg_north = 1.3521, longitude_deg_east = 103.8198,
  solar_w_m2 = 742, pressure_hpa = 1008.4,
  air_temperature_c = 32.1, relative_humidity_percent = 68,
  wind_speed_m_s = 2.8, wind_height_m = 10,
  vertical_temperature_difference_c = -0.4
)
