Estimate Global Radiation from Measured Sunshine Duration Time

Description

The function converts values of sunshine duration (in hours) to global radiation (in J m^{-2} s^{-1}).

Usage

ssd2rad(S, doy, a = 0.25, b = 0.5, rho = 50.29)

Arguments

S

Sunshine duration (hours)

doy

Julian day (for northern hemisphere only)

a, b, rho

site specific conversion parameters, must be fitted to measured data.

Value

Estimated value of global radiaton in J m^{-2} s^{-1}.

Note

Don't forget to fit the function parameters to site specific values!
