absorbance_to_beam_c: Convert absorbance measurements to beam attenuation

In sean-rohan-NOAA/GVRDM: Generalized visual reaction distance model

Description

Function converts absorbance measurements obtained using spectophotometer to beam attenuation based on the acceptance angle of the spectrophotometer, turbidity standard, measurement units for turbidity, cuvette length, and transmittance wavelength.

Usage

absorbance_to_beam_c(
  ANGLE,
  TURB,
  L,
  TRANSMITTANCE,
  UNITS = "JTU",
  WAVELENGTH = 800
)

Arguments

ANGLE	Acceptance angle of the spectrophotometer
TURB	Turbidity measurement in units of JTU, NTU
L	Length of spectrophotometer cuvette
TRANSMITTANCE	Percentage of transmitted light reaching sensor
UNITS	Turbidity measurement units
WAVELENGTH	Transmitted wavelength for spectrophotometer
