irrad2flux: Converts between irradiance and photon (quantum) flux

Description

Some spectrometers will give illuminant values in units of irradiance (\(\mu Watt.cm^{-2}\)), but physiological models require illuminants in units of photon (quantum) flux (\(\mu mol.s^{-1}.m^{-2}\)). The functions irrad2flux and flux2irrad allows for easy conversion of rspec objects between these units.

Usage

irrad2flux(rspecdata)

flux2irrad(rspecdata)

Arguments

rspecdata

(required) a rspec object containing illuminant values.

Value

a converted rspec object.
