)

Arguments

depth_m

depth at which to calculate the light attenuation coefficient. Required.

lat

latitude of the site, decimal degrees. Required.

lon

longitude of the site, decimal degrees. Required.

elev_m

elevation of the site above sea level, in metres. If NULL (default) it is looked up using a digital elevation model using lat and lon.

date

date of the calculation, as Date object, or a character in a standard format that can be converted to a Date object (e.g., "YYYY-MM-DD"). Required.

Kd_ref

Light attenuation coefficient at reference wavelength. Can be set directly, or calculated from DOC.

Kd_wvl

The reference wavelength at which Kd_ref was obtained, in nm. Default 305. Only used if Kd_ref is set.

DOC

dissolved organic carbon concentration, in mg/L. Ignored if Kd_ref is set directly.

tzone

timezone offset from UTC, in hours. Default 0.

tstart

start time of the calculation, in hours. Default 0.

tstop

stop time of the calculation, in hours. Default 23.

tsteps

number of time steps to calculate. Must be between 1 and 24, default 24.

wvl_start

start wavelength of the calculation, in nm. Default 280.

wvl_end

end wavelength of the calculation, in nm. Default 400.

wvl_steps

number of wavelength steps to calculate. Default 1 step per nm from wvl_start and wvl_end, inclusive.

o3_tc

The ozone column, in Dobson Units. If NULL, it is looked up based on latitude and month, based on historic climatology. If there is no historic value for the given month and location, a default value of 300 is used. You can force the use of this default by setting the value of this parameter to the string "default".

tauaer

The aerosol optical depth (tau) at 550 nm. If NULL, it is looked up based on latitude, longitude, and month, based on historic climatology. If there is no historic value for the given month and location, a default value of 0.235 is used. You can force the use of this default by setting the value of this parameter to the string "default".

...

other options passed on to the TUV model. See tuv_aq_defaults()

write

should the options be written to inp_aq in the TUV directory? Default TRUE.

tuv_dir

the directory where the compiled TUV executable is located

Value

the options as a character vector, invisibly
