tang_2003_flux {neonSoilFlux}

Internal function to compute surface co2 flux at a given timepoint via Tang et al 2003

Description

Given zOffsets, diffusivity, and co2 (umol mol-1) and their associated errors, compute the surface flux. This is done by computing the gradient of co2 (slope from linear regression) and linear extrapolation of surface diffusivity. Modified from Tang et al (2003).

Usage

tang_2003_flux(zOffset, co2, co2_err, diffusive, diffusive_err)

Arguments

zOffset

Required. depths below surface - assumed to be positive in value. Important for directionality!

co2

Required. co2 at depth (umol m–1)

co2_err

Required. Associated errors with that value of co2

diffusive

Required. diffusivity at each depth

diffusive_err

Required Associated errors with diffusivity

Value

Data frame of fluxes associated error
