R_abs: total absorbed radiation (W / m^2)

Description

R_abs: total absorbed radiation (W / m^2)

Usage

.get_Rabs(pars, unitless)

Arguments

pars	Concatenated parameters (leaf_par, enviro_par, and constants)
unitless	Logical. Should function use parameters with units? The function is faster when FALSE, but input must be in correct units or else results will be incorrect without any warning.

Details

The following treatment follows Okajima et al. (2012):

R_abs = α_s (1 + r) S_sw + α_l σ (T_sky ^ 4 + T_air ^ 4)

The incident longwave (aka thermal infrared) radiation is modeled from sky and air temperature σ (T_sky ^ 4 + T_air ^ 4) where T_sky is function of the air temperature and incoming solar shortwave radiation:

T_sky = T_air - 20 S_sw / 1000

Symbol	R	Description	Units	Default
α_s	abs_s	absorbtivity of shortwave radiation (0.3 - 4 μm)	none	0.80
α_l	abs_l	absorbtivity of longwave radiation (4 - 80 μm)	none	0.97
r	r	reflectance for shortwave irradiance (albedo)	none	0.2
σ	s	Stefan-Boltzmann constant	W / (m^2 K^4)	5.67e-08
S_sw	S_sw	incident short-wave (solar) radiation flux density	W / m^2	1000
S_lw	S_lw	incident long-wave radiation flux density	W / m^2	calculated
T_air	T_air	air temperature	K	298.15
T_sky	T_sky	sky temperature	K	calculated

Value

Value in W / m^2 of class units
