watbal {bioclim}

Function to calculate water balance

Description

Computes water balance from temperature and precipitation data.

Usage

watbal(t, p, lat, CC)

Arguments

t

Monthly average temperature data (12 nueric values).

p

Monthly average precipitation data (12 nueric values).

lat

Latitude in degrees. For southern latitudes use negative values.

CC

Field capacity. It depends on water retention capacity and depth of roots. Use 400 as default value.

Value

data frame with 12 variables: 'Tmp', 'Pcp', 'PET', 'P_PET', 'ppa', 'ST', 'i_ST', 'ETR', 'Dh', 'S', 'r', 'rP'.

Examples

watbal(t = rnorm(12, 18, 6), p = rnorm(12, 50, 30),
       lat = 35, CC = 400)
