ndbc10m: Calculate the 10-m winds for a vector of wind speed...

Description Usage Arguments Examples

Description

This function will return the 10-m winds given vectors of wind observations and the measurement height.

Usage

1
2
ndbc10m(wspds, zm, zref = 10, inunits = "m/s", outunits = "m/s",
  to.na = TRUE, missing = -99999)

Arguments

wspds

vector containing the wind speed observations

zm

the measurement height for wind speed observations (in m)

zref

the reference height (the height we want to estimate the winds), defaults to 10-m

inunits

units for the wind observations, "m/s" (default), "mph", "knots"

outunits

desired units for the potential winds, "m/s" (default), "mph", "knots"

to.na

turn large values to NA (default = TRUE)

missing

specify missing value (if to.na = FALSE)

# convert from mph to m/s
ndbc10m(wspds, 10, inunits = "mph")

# get potential winds from a station with anemometer height of 4.9 m
ndbc10m(wspds, 4.9)
