latent_priestley_taylor: Latent Heat Priestley-Taylor Method

latent_priestley_taylorR Documentation

Latent Heat Priestley-Taylor Method

Description

Calculates the latent heat flux using the Priestley-Taylor method. Negative heat flux signifies flux away from the surface, positive values signify flux towards the surface.

Usage

latent_priestley_taylor(...)

## S3 method for class 'numeric'
latent_priestley_taylor(t, rad_bal, soil_flux, coefficient = 1.25, ...)

## S3 method for class 'weather_station'
latent_priestley_taylor(weather_station, ...)

Arguments

...

Additional parameters passed to later functions.

t

soil_flux

Soil flux in W/m^2.

coefficient

Priestley-Taylor coefficient. Default is for open water.

weather_station

Object of class weather_station

Value

Latent heat flux in W/m^2.
