fp_calculate(timestamp, wd, ustar, l, v_sd, ws, weights = NULL,
  fetch = (z - zd) * 100, grid = 2 * fetch, model = c("KM01", "H00"),
  percent_out = FALSE, z = metadata$tower_height,
  zd = metadata$displacement, zo = metadata$roughness_length,
  raster_out = FALSE, coords, clip_area = NULL)

Arguments

timestamp

A vector of class POSIXct

wd

A numeric vector representing wind direction in degrees from North.

ustar

A numeric vector representing friction velocity in units ms+1s-1.

l

A numeric vector representing Monin-Obukhov length in units m.

v_sd

A numeric vector representing the standard deviation of the crosswind component.

ws

A numeric vector representing wind speed in units ms+1s-1.

fetch

An integer specifying the maximum length in each direction to calculate footprint probabilities. Defaults to 100 * (z - zd).

grid

An integer specifying the number of grid cells to be used in calculating footprint probabilities. Defaults to the fetch length (i.e. a 1-m resolution).

model

A character string naming the model to be used in footprint calculations. Can be "KM01" for the Kormann & Meixner (2001) model or "H00" for the Hsieh et al. (2000) model.

z

The tower height in meters. Defaults to an attempt to retrieve the value from the 'tower_height' variable in the 'metadata' list in the global environment.

zd

The zero-plane displacement height in meters. Defaults to an attempt to retrieve the value from the 'displacement' variable in the 'metadata' list in the global environment.

zo

The aerodynamic roughness length in meters. Defaults to an attempt to retrieve the value from the 'roughness_length' variable in the 'metadata' list in the global environment.
