Photon or energy irradiance from spectral energy or photon irradiance.
Energy or photon irradiance for one or more wavebands of a radiation spectrum.
irradiance(
w.length,
s.irrad,
w.band = NULL,
unit.out = NULL,
unit.in = "energy",
check.spectrum = TRUE,
use.cached.mult = FALSE,
use.hinges = getOption("photobiology.use.hinges", default = NULL)
)w.length |
numeric Vector of wavelength (nm). |
s.irrad |
numeric vector of spectral (energy) irradiances (W m-2 nm-1). |
w.band |
waveband or list of waveband objects The waveband(s) determine the region(s) of the spectrum that are summarized. |
unit.out |
character Allowed values "energy", and "photon", or its alias "quantum". |
unit.in |
character Allowed values "energy", and "photon", or its alias "quantum". |
check.spectrum |
logical Flag indicating whether to sanity check input data, default is TRUE. |
use.cached.mult |
logical Flag indicating whether multiplier values should be cached between calls. |
use.hinges |
logical Flag indicating whether to insert "hinges" into the spectral data before integration so as to reduce interpolation errors at the boundaries of the wavebands. |
A single numeric value or a vector of numeric values with no change in scale factor: [W m-2 nm-1] -> [mol s-1 m-2]
The last three parameters control speed optimizations. The defaults
should be suitable in most cases. If you set check.spectrum=FALSE
then you should call check_spectrum() at least once for your
spectrum before using any of the other functions. If you will use
repeatedly the same SWFs on many spectra measured at exactly the same
wavelengths you may obtain some speed up by setting
use.cached.mult=TRUE. However, be aware that you are responsible for
ensuring that the wavelengths are the same in each call, as the only test
done is for the length of the w.length vector. The is no reason for
setting use.cpp.code=FALSE other than for testing the improvement in
speed, or in cases where there is no suitable C++ compiler for building the
package.
