par.to.sw: Convert PAR to shortwave
Description
Returns incoming shortwave radiation by converting PAR measuremt.
Usage
par.to.sw.base(par, coeff=0.473)par.to.sw(data, par.col='par', coeff=0.473)
Value
#For par.to.sw
Object of class data.frame with column name 'sw' and other values from ts.data
#For par.to.sw.base
Numeric vector of shortwave values with units W/m^2
Arguments
- data
Object of class data.frame with column name 'par' (units umol/m^2/sec)
- par.col
String of alternative name for PAR column
- coeff
Numerical coefficient to convert PAR (umol/m^2/sec) to SW (W/m^2).
Defaults to value from Britton and Dodd (1976).
