Calculate cline of series of segments
Cline depth is defined as the midpoint of the segment connecting inflection
points that has the maximum slope. A cline cannot occur over a depth range
of less than 1m and also cannot be the shallowest segment. Violating both
conditions will thrown warnings though this function handles both
differently. Used mostly with wtr_layer
cline_calc(z_seg = z_seg, sigma_seg = sigma_seg)
z_seg |
depth in metres; should be an increasing vector |
sigma_seg |
parameter measured in the water column profile |
the depth of the cline
