Produce Hydrolight-compatible input files for RTE simulations using measured IOPs

Description

Produce Hydrolight-compatible input files for RTE simulations using measured IOPs

Usage

generate.HL.inputs(IOP, Absorption.meter = "ASPH",
  Attenuation.meter = "HS6", Backscattering.meter = "HS6",
  bbp.tilde = 0.018, waves = seq(400, 700, 5), Zmax = 50,
  delta.Z = 1, Station = "ST")

Arguments

IOP

is a list returned by the function correct.merge.IOP.profile.

Absorption.meter

is the instrument acronyme for the absorption meter (i.e. "ASPH", "AC9", "ACS"). Default is Absorption.meter="ASPH"

Attenuation.meter

is the instrument acronyme for the attenuation meter (i.e. "AC9", "ACS", "BB9", "HS6"). Note that if a backscattering meter is put for attenuation, c is computed using a and bbp. In this case, the user need to provide the bacskatteting ratio (bbp.tilde) to estimate bp (bp = bbp/bbp.tilde) Default is Attenuation.meter="HS6"

Backscattering.meter

is the instrument acronyme for the backscattering meter (i.e. BB9, BB3, HS6). If NA, then no bbp file is output. Default is Backscattering.meter="HS6"

bbp.tilde

is the backscattering ratio need to compute the beam attenuation if only bbp is measured. Default is bbp.tilde=0.018 (i.e. from Petzold VSF)

waves

is a vector of wavelengths to include in the output file

Zmax

is the maximum depth to include in the output file

delta.Z

is the depth interval

Station

is the station ID
