Default interpolation parameters
Description
Returns a list with the default parameterization for interpolation. Most parameter values are set according to Thornton et al. (1997).
Usage
defaultInterpolationParams()
Value
A list with the following items (default values in brackets):
initial_Rp [= 140000]: Initial truncation radius.iterations [= 3]: Number of station density iterations.alpha_MinTemperature [= 3.0]: Gaussian shape parameter for minimum temperature.alpha_MaxTemperature [= 3.0]: Gaussian shape parameter for maximum temperature.alpha_DewTemperature [= 3.0]: Gaussian shape parameter for dew-point temperature.alpha_PrecipitationEvent [= 5.0]: Gaussian shape parameter for precipitation events.alpha_PrecipitationAmount [= 5.0]: Gaussian shape parameter for the regression of precipitation amounts.alpha_Wind [= 3.0]: Gaussian shape parameter for wind.N_MinTemperature [= 30]: Average number of stations with non-zero weights for minimum temperature.N_MaxTemperature [= 30]: Average number of stations with non-zero weights for maximum temperature.N_DewTemperature [= 30]: Average number of stations with non-zero weights for dew-point temperature.N_PrecipitationEvent [= 5]: Average number of stations with non-zero weights for precipitation events.N_PrecipitationAmount [= 20]: Average number of stations with non-zero weights for the regression of precipitation amounts.N_Wind [= 2]: Average number of stations with non-zero weights for wind.St_Precipitation [= 5]: Number of days for the temporal smoothing of precipitation.St_TemperatureRange [= 15]: Number of days for the temporal smoothing of temperature range.pop_crit [= 0.50]: Critical precipitation occurrence parameter.f_max [= 0.6]: Maximum value for precipitation regression extrapolations (0.6 equals to a maximum of 4 times extrapolation).wind_height [= 10]: Wind measurement height (in m).wind_roughness_height [= 0.001]: Wind roughness height (in m), for PET calculations.penman_albedo [= 0.25]: Albedo for PET calculations.penman_windfun [= "1956"]: Wind speed function version, either "1948" or "1956", for PET calculation.debug [= FALSE]: Boolean flag to show extra console output.
