latent_bowen: Latent Heat using Bowen Method

In FabianMitze/FieldClimRevised: Calculates Fluxes for Weather Stations

Latent Heat using Bowen Method

Description

Calculates the latent heat flux using the Bowen Method. Negative flux signifies flux away from the surface, positive values signify flux towards the surface. Values above 600 W/m² and below -600 W/m² will be recognized as measurement mistakes and smoothed respectively.

Usage

latent_bowen(...)

## S3 method for class 'numeric'
latent_bowen(
  t1,
  t2,
  hum1,
  hum2,
  p1,
  p2,
  z1 = 2,
  z2 = 10,
  rad_bal,
  soil_flux,
  ...
)

## S3 method for class 'weather_station'
latent_bowen(weather_station, ...)

Arguments

...	Additional parameters passed to later functions.
t1	Temperature at lower height in °C.
t2	Temperature at upper height in °C.
hum1	Relative humidity at lower height in %.
hum2	Relative humidity at upper height in %.
p1	Air pressure at lower height in hPa.
p2	Air pressure at upper height in hPa.
z1	Lower height of measuremen in m.
z2	Upper height of measurement in m.
rad_bal	Radiation balance in W/m².
soil_flux	Soil flux in W/m².
weather_station	Object of class weather_station.

Value
