Description Usage Arguments Value References

View source: R/radiation_functions.R

Description

Calculates the net solar or shortwave radiation for a given location based on incoming solar radiation timeseries. Based on Equation 38 in Allen et al. (1998).

Usage

1
R_ns(Rs, albedo = 0.23)

Arguments

Rs

incoming solar radiation (MJ/m^2/timestep)

albedo

albedo or canopy reflection coefficient (-). Defaults to 0.23 for the hypothetical grass reference crop.

Value

Rns

Net solar or shortwave radiation (MJ/m^2/timestep)
