run_disperser_parallel: run the fac model in parallel

In lhenneman/disperseR: Run HYSPLIT many times in parallel, aggregate to zip code level, plot the results, save the plots.

Description

run_disperser_parallel

Usage

run_disperser_parallel(input.refs = NULL, pbl.height = NULL,
  species = "so2", proc_dir = proc_dir, overwrite = F, npart = 100,
  mc.cores = parallel::detectCores(), keep.hysplit.files = FALSE)

Arguments

input.refs	should be the data table that is the result of the 'define_input()' function or a subset of that dataset
pbl.height	Monthly mean planetary boundary layer heights. See vignettes for more information
species	The package has the possibility to use two types of species. The default one is ‘species = ’so2'‘, but you can also use particulate sulfate 'species = ’so4p''.
proc_dir	directory where the function saves temporary files while running. This is automatically defined by 'create_dirs()'
overwrite	if output files already exist should they be overwritten? This is 'false' by default.
npart	number of air parcels tracked by HYSPLIT. Defaults to 100
mc.cores	on how many cores should R split the computations. set to parallel::detectCores() or set to 1 if you want to serial computation.
keep.hysplit.files	logical. If FALSE (the default), clears storage space in the 'proc_dir' by removing all HYSPLIT files

Details

It is possible that running the below code with output a warning "WARNING: map background file not found ../graphics/arlmap". It is safe to ignore it.

Value

This function returns fac model results.
