Returns the gas transfer coefficient for gas of interest based on different models.

1	calc_kW(ws, wt, gas = "CO2", model = "wann14")

`ws`	numeric; windspeed m/s
`wt`	numeric; water temperature °C
`gas`	character; one of 'CO2', 'CH4'
`model`	character; model to calculate kW. See 'Details'

Currently these models are supported:

WANN14: Wanninkhof (2014)
COLE98: Cole and Caraco (1998)

Numeric value of gas transfer coefficient for the given parameters

# Windpseed in m/s
windspeed <- c(2, 4.3, 1.8)
# Water temperature in °C
watertemperature <- c(18, 21, 19.3)
