rMax175ms_solver

Description

A helper function for numerically solving the radius of 17.5 m/s winds using the Chavas and Knaff (2022) model. This function is called by 'uniroot' to compute the difference between the guessed and actual rmax values.

Usage

rMax175ms_solver(rMax175ms_m, vMax, rmax_predict_m, TClats)

Arguments

rMax175ms_m

Numeric. Guessed radius of 17.5 m/s winds in meters.

vMax

Numeric. Maximum wind speed (m/s).

rmax_predict_m

Numeric. Target radius of maximum winds in meters.

TClats

Numeric. Latitude of the tropical cyclone in degrees.

Value

The difference between the guessed rmax and the target rmax.

Examples

rMax175ms_solver(100000, 50, 36000, 20)
