SunCalcMeeus (version 0.1.2)

SunCalcMeeus-package: SunCalcMeeus: Sun Position and Daylight Calculations

Description

Compute the position of the sun, and local solar time using Meeus' formulae. Compute day and/or night length using different twilight definitions or arbitrary sun elevation angles. This package is part of the 'r4photobiology' suite, Aphalo, P. J. (2015) tools:::Rd_expr_doi("10.19232/uv4pb.2015.1.14"). Algorithms from Meeus (1998, ISBN:0943396611).
