fTnwb: Calculation of the natural wet bulb temperature.

In anacv/HeatStress: Calculate heat stress indices

Calculation of the natural wet bulb temperature.

Description

Calculation of the natural wet bulb temperature.

Usage

fTnwb(tas, dewp, relh, Pair, wind, min.speed, radiation, propDirect,
  zenith, irad = 1, SurfAlbedo = 0.4, tolerance = 1e-04)

Arguments

tas	vector of temperature in degC.
dewp	vector of dewpoint temperature in degC.
relh	vector of relative humidity in %.
Pair	value of air pressure in hPa.
wind	vector of wind speed in m/s.
min.speed	value of minimum wind speed in m/s.
radiation	vector of solar shortwave downwelling radiation in W/m2.
propDirect	proportion of direct radiation = direct/(diffuse + direct).
zenith	zenith angle in radians.
irad	(optional): include radiation (1) or not (irad=0, psychrometric web bulb temp). Default: 1.
SurfAlbedo	(optional) albedo in the surface. Default: 0.4.
tolerance	(optional) tolerance value for the iteration. Default: 1e-4.
