rcs: Get radar cross section

Description

Gives the currently assumed radar cross section in cm^2.

Usage

rcs(x)
# S3 method for vp
rcs(x)
# S3 method for list
rcs(x)
# S3 method for vpts
rcs(x)
# S3 method for vpi
rcs(x)

Arguments

x

A vp, list of vp or vpts object.

Value

a radar cross section in cm^2

Methods (by class)

• vp: radar cross section of a vertical profile

• list: radar cross sections for a list of vertical profiles

• vpts: radar cross section of a time series of vertical profile

• vpi: radar cross section of a time series of vertically integrated vertical profile(s)

Details

See also rcs<- for changing or setting the radar cross section of an object.

Examples

# NOT RUN {
# load example data:
data(example_vp)
data(example_vpts)

# retrieve RCS for a single vertical profile:
rcs(example_vp)

# retrieve RCS for a vertical profile time series:
rcs(example_vpts)

# change or set RCS for a single vertical profile:
rcs(example_vp) <- 11

# change or set RCS for a vertical profile time series:
rcs(example_vpts) <- 11
# }
