trin: Performs trigonometric interpolation

In raytracing: Rossby Wave Ray Tracing

Performs trigonometric interpolation

Description

This function performs trigonometric interpolation for the passed basic state variable and the requested latitude

Usage

trin(y, yk, mercator = FALSE)

Arguments

y	Numeric. The latitude where the interpolation is required
yk	Numeric vector of the data to be interpolated. For instance, umz or betam
mercator	Logical. Is it require to transform the final data in mercator coordinates? Default is FALSE.

Value

Numeric value

Note

This function is an alternative to ypos and is more accurate

Other Interpolation: ypos()

Examples

{
input <- system.file("extdata",
                     "uwnd.mon.mean_200hPa_2014JFM.nc",
                      package = "raytracing")
b <- betaks(u = input)
umz <- rev(colMeans(b$u, na.rm = TRUE))*cos(rev(b$lat)*pi/180)
betamz <- rev(colMeans(b$betam, na.rm = TRUE))
y0 <- -17
trin(y = y0, yk = umz)
}
