- act.retrievals.calculate_net_radiation(obj, ush='up_short_hemisp', ulh='up_long_hemisp', dsh='down_short_hemisp', dlhs='down_long_hemisp_shaded', smooth=None)[source]¶
Function to calculate the net radiation from upwelling short and long-wave irradiance and downwelling short and long-wave hemisperic irradiances
- Parameters:
obj (ACT object) – Object where variables for these calculations are stored
ush (str) – Name of the upwelling shortwave hemispheric variable
ulh (str) – Name of the upwelling longwave hemispheric variable
dsh (str) – Name of the downwelling shortwave hemispheric variable
dlhs (str) – Name of the downwelling longwave hemispheric variable
smooth (int) – Smoothing to apply to the net radiation. This will create an additional variable
- Returns:
obj (ACT Object) – Object with calculations included as new variables.
