Core Function Called to Solve Equation for Soil Temperature

Description

The function called by soil_temperature_function to solve equation for soil temperature from \insertCiteBeckman1973;textualTrenchR.

Usage

soil_temperature_equation(L, rho_a, c_a, u_inst, z_r, z0, T_inst, T_s)

Arguments

L	numeric Monin-Obukhov length, a measure of the instability of heat flow (see \insertCiteBeckman1973;textualTrenchR).
rho_a	numeric density of air (kg m-3).
c_a	numeric specific heat of air (J kg-1 C-1).
u_inst	numeric instantaneous wind speed (m s-1).
z_r	numeric reference height (m).
z0	numeric surface roughness (m).
T_inst	numeric instantaneous air temperature (C).
T_s	numeric initial soil surface temperature (C).

Value

numeric soil temperature (C).
