irrad2flux {pavo}

Converts between irradiance and photon (quantum) flux

Description

Some spectrometers will give illuminant values in units of irradiance (μWatt.cm^-2), but physiological models require illuminants in units of photon (quantum) flux (μmol.s^-1.m^-2). The functions irrad2flux() and flux2irrad() allows for easy conversion of rspec objects between these units.

Usage

irrad2flux(rspecdata)

flux2irrad(rspecdata)

Arguments

rspecdata

(required) a rspec object containing illuminant values.

Value

a converted rspec object.
