Calculates soil thermal conductivity (W/m K) from soil moisture (Vol-%) and texture.

soil_thermal_cond(...)

# S3 method for numeric
soil_thermal_cond(moisture, texture = "sand", ...)

# S3 method for weather_station
soil_thermal_cond(weather_station, ...)

Arguments

...

Additional parameters passed to later functions.

moisture

Soil moisture in Vol-%.

texture

Soil texture. Either "sand" or "clay".

weather_station

Object of class weather_station.

Value

Soil thermal conductivity in W/m K.

Details

Works by linearly interpolating thermal conductivity based on measured data.
