ssd2rad: Estimate Global Radiation from Measured Sunshine Duration Time

Description

The function converts values of sunshine duration (in hours) to global radiation (in \(J m^{-2} s^{-1}\)).

Usage

ssd2rad(S, doy, a = 0.25, b = 0.5, rho = 50.29)

Arguments

S

Sunshine duration (hours)

doy

Julian day (for northern hemisphere only)

a, b, rho

site specific conversion parameters, must be fitted to measured data.

Value

Estimated value of global radiaton in \(J m^{-2} s^{-1}\).
