calc_mrt: Calculation of the Mean Radiant Temperatur (MRT)

In ca-vi/Climatology_Package: Package for the chair of Climatology at TU Berlin

Description

This function calculates the mean radiant temperature (mrt) from radiation long- and shortwave fluxes of all directions according to Thorsson et al. 2007.

Usage

calc_mrt(data=NULL, SW_UP=NA, SW_DOWN=NA, SW_EAST=NA,
                      SW_WEST=NA, SW_NORTH=NA, SW_SOUTH=NA, LW_UP=NA,
                      LW_DOWN=NA, LW_EAST=NA, LW_WEST=NA, LW_NORTH=NA,
                      LW_SOUTH=NA)

Arguments

data	This functions need an input table with all fluxes from all directions for instance as it comes from a human response station (biomet).
SW_UP	You can give every radiation flux column individually. But you need all of them.
SW_DOWN	You can give every radiation flux column individually. But you need all of them.
SW_EAST	You can give every radiation flux column individually. But you need all of them.
SW_WEST	You can give every radiation flux column individually. But you need all of them.
SW_NORTH	You can give every radiation flux column individually. But you need all of them.
SW_SOUTH	You can give every radiation flux column individually. But you need all of them.
LW_UP	You can give every radiation flux column individually. But you need all of them.
LW_DOWN	You can give every radiation flux column individually. But you need all of them.
LW_EAST	You can give every radiation flux column individually. But you need all of them.
LW_WEST	You can give every radiation flux column individually. But you need all of them.
LW_NORTH	You can give every radiation flux column individually. But you need all of them.
LW_SOUTH	You can give every radiation flux column individually. But you need all of them.

Value

The value is rounded to two digits.
