Calculates Hayashi-van der Kamp area of water in a Prairie pond

Usage

wetland_pond_area(pond_depth = NULL, p = NULL, s = NULL)

Arguments

pond_depth	Required. Depth of water in pond (in m). May be a vector of values. Note that in this context the depth refers to the deepest point in the pond.
p	Required. Value of p exponent for ponds. May be a vector of values.
s	Required. Value of s parameter (pond area for a depth of 1 m) in m^2) for ponds. May be a vector of values.

Value

If successful, returns a vector of the pond areas, for the given depths. If unsuccessful, returns FALSE.
