calc_air_pressure: Calculates the average air pressure for a site

In USGS-R/streamMetabolizer: Models for Estimating Aquatic Photosynthesis and Respiration

Calculates the average air pressure for a site

Description

Estimates air pressure from air temperature and elevation

Usage

calc_air_pressure(
  temp.air = u(15, "degC"),
  elevation = u(762, "m"),
  attach.units = deprecated()
)

Arguments

temp.air	air temperature in degrees C. Default is 15 degC.
elevation	the site elevation above sea level in m. Default is the rough mean elevation of the USA at 2500 ft (from http://www.infoplease.com/ipa/A0001792.html)
attach.units	(deprecated, effectively FALSE in future) logical. Should the returned vector be a unitted object?

Value

a numeric vector of barometric pressures in mb, with units attached if requested.

Examples

calc_air_pressure(15, 762)
calc_air_pressure(15, 100)
