Compute the Wind Hazards Associated Over the Period of a TCs Event at one Given Location

Description

Compute the Wind Hazards Associated Over the Period of a TCs Event at one Given Location

Usage

TCHazaRdsWindTimeSereies(outdate = NULL, GEO_land = NULL, TC, paramsTable)

Arguments

outdate

array of POSITx date times to linearly interpolate TC track,optional.

GEO_land

dataframe hazard geometry generated with land_geometry

TC

SpatVector of Tropical cyclone track parameters

paramsTable

Global parameters to compute TC Hazards.

Details

The function calculates wind speed and direction time series from a tropical cyclone track using various wind profile models.

Value

list() containing a timeseries

abbreviated attribute description units
date POSIX data time object of TC or outdate if provided as.POSIX
P Atmospheric pressure hPa
Uw Meridional wind speed m/s
Vw Zonal wind speed m/s
Sw Wind speed m/s
R distance to TC centre m
rMax radius of maximum wind km
vMax TC maximum velocity m/s
b TC wind profile exponent -
CP TC central Pressure hPa
dPdt change in TC CP per hour hPa/hr
vFm velocity of TC forward motion m/s

Examples

GEO_land = data.frame(dem=0,lons = 147,lats=-18,f=-4e-4,inlandD = 0)

require(terra)
TCi <- vect(system.file("extdata/YASI/YASI.shp", package="TCHazaRds"))
TCi$PRES <- TCi$BOM_PRES

paramsTable = read.csv(system.file("extdata/tuningParams/defult_params.csv",package = "TCHazaRds"))
HAZts = TCHazaRdsWindTimeSereies(GEO_land=GEO_land,TC=TCi,paramsTable = paramsTable)
main =  paste(TCi$NAME[1],TCi$SEASON[1],"at",GEO_land$lons,GEO_land$lats)
#with(HAZts,plot(date,Sw,format = "%b-%d %H",type="l",main = main,ylab = "Wind speed [m/s]"))
