YplantQMC (version 0.6-6)

ypreport: Make a PDF report of several YplantQMC objects

Description

Produce a report containing standard graphs and summaries of YplantQMC objects. See Details for usage.

This function produces a number of standard plots and prints of five different YplantQMC objects. The plots cannot at the moment not be customized; please see below for the component functions that generate the plots (these usually have more options for customization). Or, modify the code of ypreport as you see fit.

To create a report, simply use this command:

ypreport(plant=myplant, met=asunnyday, phy=eucleaf, hemi=mycanopy,
ypsim=eucsim1) 

Where myplant, asunnyday, eucleaf, mycanopy and eucsim1 are objects that you have already generated. The function is flexible : you can generate a report on a subset of the objects, for example only on the hemiphoto and the plant:

 ypreport(plant=myplant,
hemi=spruceforest) 

You may want to check out the following functions, which are used in ypreport:

list(list("viewplot"))

Produces a three-panel plot with side and top views of the plant.

list(list("summary.plant3d"))

Summarizes a plant

list(list("setHemi"))

Reads a hemiphoto - also describes the plot function.

list(list("fitdistribution"))

Fits (and plots) a leaf angle distribution.

list(list("setMet"))

Constructs (and plots) a weather object.

list(list("plot.leaffile"))

Plots a leaf.

list(list("YplantDay"))

A daily Yplant simulation (and a standard plot).
