soilHeatFlux: Estimates Soil Heat Flux
In water: Actual Evapotranspiration with Energy Balance Models

Description Usage Arguments Author(s) References See Also

This function implements models to estimate soil heat flux for different surfaces and considering different inputs.

1	soilHeatFlux(image, Ts, albedo, LAI, Rn, aoi, method = "Tasumi")

`image`	surface reflectance image
`Ts`	Land surface temperature. See surfaceTemperature()
`albedo`	broadband surface albedo. See albedo()
`LAI`	raster layer with leaf area index. See LAI()
`Rn`	Net radiation. See netRadiation()
`aoi`	area of interest to crop images, if waterOptions("autoAoi") == TRUE will look for any object called aoi on .GlobalEnv
`method`	method used for the G estimation. Currently implemeted are "Tasumi" for Tasumi,2003 or "Bastiaanssen" for Bastiaanssen, 2000
