Calculate meteorological and atmospheric covariates

Extract meteorological and atmospheric values at point locations. Returns a data.frame object containing locs_id, date and hour, vertical pressure level, and meteorological or atmospheric variable. Variable column name reflects variable and circular buffer radius.

Usage

calculate_merra2(
  from,
  locs,
  locs_id = NULL,
  radius = 0,
  fun = "mean",
  geom = FALSE,
  ...
)

Arguments

from

SpatRaster(1). Output of process_merra2().

locs

data.frame, characater to file path, SpatVector, or sf object.

locs_id

character(1). Column within locations CSV file containing identifier for each unique coordinate location.

radius

integer(1). Circular buffer distance around site locations. (Default = 0).

fun

character(1). Function used to summarize multiple raster cells within sites location buffer (Default = mean).

geom

FALSE/"sf"/"terra".. Should the function return with geometry? Default is FALSE, options with geometry are "sf" or "terra". The coordinate reference system of the sf or SpatVector is that of from.

Placeholders

Value

Examples

## NOTE: Example is wrapped in `\dontrun{}` as function requires a large
##       amount of data which is not included in the package.
if (FALSE) { # \dontrun{
loc <- data.frame(id = "001", lon = -78.90, lat = 35.97)
calculate_merra2(
  from = merra2, # derived from process_merra2() example
  locs = loc,
  locs_id = "id",
  radius = 0,
  fun = "mean",
  geom = FALSE
)
} # }
