Latent Heat using Bowen Method

Calculates the latent heat flux using the Bowen Method. Negative flux signifies flux away from the surface, positive values signify flux towards the surface.

Arguments

...	Additional parameters passed to later functions.
t1	Temperature at lower height (e.g. height of anemometer) in degrees C.
t2	Temperature at upper height in degrees C.
hum1	Relative humidity at lower height (e.g. height of anemometer) in %.
hum2	Relative humidity at upper height in %.
p1	Air pressure at lower height in hPa.
p2	Air pressure at upper height in hPa.
z1	Lower height of measurement (e.g. height of anemometer) in m.
z2	Upper height of measurement in m.
rad_bal	Radiation balance in W/m^2.
soil_flux	Soil flux in W/m^2.
weather_station	Object of class weather_station

Value

Latent heat flux in W/m^2
