hourlyhuss: Calculate hourly corrected specific humidity from daily data

In ilyamaclean/UKCP18adjust: Correct UKCP18 to make it consistent with historic data

Description

Calculate hourly corrected specific humidity from daily data

Usage

hourlyhuss(ukcp_huss, hus_gam, htemps = NA, hpre = NA)

Arguments

ukcp_huss	a spatialarray of daily specific humidity (Kg / Kg)
hus_gam	a gam object of correction coefficients to apply to specific humdidity data as returned by gamcorrect()
htemps	optional spatial array of hourly temperatures (deg C - see details)
hpre	optional spatial array of hourly pressure (Pa - see details)

Details

This function applies a correction to ukcp_huss using parameters in hus_gam and then interpolates daily data to hourly. If temperature data are supplied, hourly specific humdidities are conveted to relative humidity, which is capped at 100 prior to converting back to specific humdidity. Hourly pressure data are used in converting to relative humidity. If not supplied, then pressure is assumed to be 101300 Pa.

Value

a spatial array of hourly specific humidities in Kg / Kg
