irad: Irradiation Data Set

In rSALMO: Simulation of ecological lake models

Description

Example data set for the year 2005 with hourly global irradiation data.

Format

Data frame with the following columns:

time

time in UTC, the year is 2005

irad

global irradiation, hourly sum in J/cm^2. The series contains some missing data.

irad2

global irradiation, hourly sum in J/cm^2; missing date were arbitrarily replaced with corresponding data from the next year.

valid

logical if the value in irad2 is a measured value from the original data set or not.

Source

Data taken from Deutscher Wetterdienst http://www.dwd.de, station Dresden Klotzsche (Germany), station number1048.

Examples

## derive daily sums (J/cm^2/d)
data(irad)
irad$day   <- floor(as.numeric(irad$time)/60/60/24)
daily      <- aggregate(list(irad = irad$irad2[-1]), list(day=irad$day[-1]), sum)
daily$time <- as.POSIXct((daily$day) * 60*60*24, origin = "1970-01-01 00:00.00 UTC")

daily <- data.frame(
   time = as.POSIXct(format(daily$time, "%Y-%m-%d")),
   irad = daily$irad
)

plot(daily, type="l", xlab="2005", ylab = "global irradiation (J/cm^2/d)")
