effectiveTemp: Calculation of the effective temperature.

In anacv/HeatStress: Calculate heat stress indices

Calculation of the effective temperature.

Description

Calculation of the effective temperature from temperature, relative humidity and wind.

Usage

effectiveTemp(tas, hurs, wind)

Arguments

tas	vector of air temperature in degC.
hurs	vector of relative humidity in %.
wind	vector of wind at 10m in m/s.

Details

Formula based on air temperature, relative humidity and wind, as it is calculated in Coccolo et al. 2016 and references therein.

Value

Effective temperature in degC.

Examples

## Not run:  
# load the meteorological variables for example data in Salamanca:
data("data_obs") 
et <- effectiveTemp(data_obs$tasmean, hurs=data_obs$hurs, wind=data_obs$wind)

## End(Not run)
