soiltemp: Calculates ground surface temperature (hourly)

In ilyamaclean/microclimf: Fast above, below or within canopy gridded microclimate modelling with R

Calculates ground surface temperature (hourly)

Description

The function 'soiltemp' estimates ground surface temperature

Usage

soiltemp(micro, reqhgt = 0.05, pai_a = NA, tfact = 1.5)

Arguments

micro	an object of class 'microin' as returned by [modelin()] (see details)
reqhgt	height above ground at which model outputs are needed (m).
pai_a	plant area index above 'reqhgt'. Determined from total 'pai' if not supplied.
tfact	coefficient determining sensitivity of soil moisture to variation in topographic wetness (see [soilmdistribute()])

Details

if [wind()] has not been run to add additional elements to 'micro' it is automatically called.

Value

an object of class micro with the following components added:

T0

ground surface temperature (deg C)

G

ground heat flux (W/m^2)

...

additional terms needed for subsequent modelling
