Read and parse a text file output by libRadtran's uvspec routine for a solar spectrum simulation. The output of uvspec depends among other things on the solver used. We define a family of functions, each function for a different solver.
Usage
read_uvspec_disort(
file,
date = NULL,
geocode = NULL,
label = NULL,
tz = NULL,
locale = readr::default_locale(),
multiplier = 0.001,
qty = "irradiance"
)
Arguments
- file
character string
- date
a
POSIXct
object to use to set the"when.measured"
attribute. IfNULL
, the default, the date is extracted from the file header.- geocode
A data frame with columns
lon
andlat
used to set attribute"where.measured"
.- label
character string, but if
NULL
the value offile
is used, and ifNA
the "what.measured" attribute is not set.- tz
character Time zone is by default read from the file.
- locale
The locale controls defaults that vary from place to place. The default locale is US-centric (like R), but you can use
locale
to create your own locale that controls things like the default time zone, encoding, decimal mark, big mark, and day/month names.- multiplier
numeric A multiplier for conversion into W m-2 nm-1, as the units of expression of the output from "uvspec" depend on the units in which the extraterrestrial solar spectrum data is expressed.
- qty
character "uvspec" returns both irradiance and intensity with solver "disort".
