turc {evapoRe}R Documentation

Calculate Potential Evapotranspiration (PET) using the Turc Method

Description

The function turc Computes PET using the Turc formula.

Usage

turc(tavg, rs, rh, x = NULL)

## S4 method for signature 'missing,missing,missing'
turc(x)

## S4 method for signature 'Raster,Raster,Raster'
turc(tavg, rs, rh, x = NULL)

## S4 method for signature 'character,character,character'
turc(tavg, rs, rh, x = NULL)

Arguments

tavg

Raster* object or file path; average temperature (°C)

rs

Raster* object or file path; shortwave radiation (MJ m-2 day-1)

rh

Raster* object or file path; relative humidity (percent)

x

A 'data.table' with columns: "lon", "lat", "date", "tavg", "rs", and "rh"

Details

For Raster inputs, provide raster objects or file paths for 'tavg', 'rs', and 'rh'. For data.table input, provide a single 'data.table' with columns: "lon", "lat", "date", "tavg", "rs", and "rh".

Value

RasterBrick or data.table of PET values (mm/day)
