predict_rmax {TCHazaRds}R Documentation

predict_rmax

Description

Predicts the radius of maximum winds (rmax) based on the radius of 17.5 m/s winds (rMax175ms) using the Chavas and Knaff (2022) model.

Usage

predict_rmax(rMax175ms, vMax, TClats)

Arguments

rMax175ms

Numeric. A vector of radius of 17.5 m/s winds (in km).

vMax

Numeric. A vector of maximum wind speeds (m/s).

TClats

Numeric. A vector of latitudes of tropical cyclones (in degrees).

Value

A vector of predicted rmax values (in km).

Examples

rMax175ms <- c(100, 120, 140)
vMax <- c(50, 55, 60)
TClats <- c(20, 25, 30)
predict_rmax(rMax175ms, vMax, TClats)
