In wpeterman/biophys: Spatially-explicit biophysical models

Description

Calculate Potential Foraging Time (PFT) based on evaporative water loss

Usage

pft(biophys.inputs,
temp.out)

Arguments

biophys.inputs	Object created from running biophys.prep
temp.out	Hourly operative body temperature and air temperature. Pass results from op.temp.body

Details

This function is a wrapper to call an internal function (evap.func)

Value

This function will return the hourly evaporative water loss

Examples

# Create example data
r.max <- raster(ncol=10, nrow=10)

# assign values to cells
r.max[] <- runif(ncell(r.max),10,20)
r.min <- r.max - 5
r.elev <- r.max * 10

# Make vector of hours
night.hours <- c(19:24,1:7)

biophys.input <- biophys.prep(r.max, r.min, r.elev, hour = night.hours, month = c("April"), Julian = c(106))
temp.out <- op.body.temp(biophys.input)

PFT.out <- pft(biophys.inputs, temp.out)
