cdom_slope_ratio: Calculate the slope ratio (SR) from an absorption spectra.

Description

Calculate the slope ratio (SR) from an absorption spectra.

Usage

cdom_slope_ratio(wl, absorbance)

Arguments

wl

The wavelength vector.

absorbance

The absorbance vector.

Value

• The value of the slope ratio.

Details

Calculate the slope ratio (SR) as defined by Helms et al. (2008).

$$SR = \frac{S_{275-295}}{S_{350-400}}$$
