bigleaf (version 0.7.1)

Physical and Physiological Ecosystem Properties from Eddy Covariance Data

Description

Calculation of physical (e.g. aerodynamic conductance, surface temperature), and physiological (e.g. canopy conductance, water-use efficiency) ecosystem properties from eddy covariance data and accompanying meteorological measurements. Calculations assume the land surface to behave like a 'big-leaf' and return bulk ecosystem/canopy variables.
