'bc' calculates daily solar radiation based on daily temperature range using Bristow-Campbell model.

days |
Vector of class 'Date' of length n. |
lat |
Latitude in decimal degrees. |
BCb |
Bristow-Campbell model coefficient 'B'. |
extraT |
Optional. Vector of length n of extraterrestrial solar radiation [MJm-2]. If 'NULL' then it is calculated by the function. Providing extraterrestrial solar radiation speeds up the computation |
Tmax |
Vector of length n containing daily maximum temperature [C]. |
Tmin |
Vector of length n containing daily minumum temperature [C]. |
BCc |
Bristow-Campbell model coefficient 'C' usually equaled to 2. |
tal |
Clear sky transmissivity. |
Bristow and Campbell proposed a method for estimating solar radiation from air temperature measurements. They developed an empirical relationship to express the daily total atmospheric transmittance as a function of daily range in air temperature.
Vector of length n of daily solar radiation [MJm-2].
'Tmax', 'Tmin' can contain NA's, but length of vectors 'Tmax', 'Tmin' and 'days' has to be the same.
