Run SCOPE simulations in parallell

Usage

get.SCOPE.parallel(
  LUT,
  options.SCOPE = NULL,
  optipar = NULL,
  path.out = NULL,
  parallel = TRUE,
  canopy.model = "fourSAIL",
  leaf.model = "fluspect-CX",
  get.outputs = "Main",
  get.plots = TRUE,
  get.csv = T,
  n.cores = 8
)

Arguments

LUT: Leaf, biochemistry, viewing angles, meteo, and canopy properties needed for running SCOPE model.
options.SCOPE: Optical leaf properties, the total irradiance if a specific value is provided instead of the usual Modtran output.
optipar: list. Leaf-level optical parameters passed on to get.SCOPE for each LUT chunk (e.g. SCOPEinR::optipar2021.Pro.CX).
path.out: Folder for saving the SCOPE outputs.
parallel: Logical, indicating whether to use parallel processing. Default is TRUE.
canopy.model: Selection of canopy model options available are 'fourSAIL', 'fourSAIL' and 'INFORM'. By default, the fourSAIL model will be used.
leaf.model: Selection of canopy model options available are 'fluspect-CX', 'fluspect-B', 'PROSPECT', 'Liberty'. By default, the fluspect-CX model will be used.
get.outputs: If get.outputs = 'ALL', all variables will be retrieved; if get.outputs = 'Main', only the main variables will be retrieved. By default, SCOPE uses get.outputs = 'ALL', for processing a huge LUT, it is recommended to use get.outputs = 'Main'.
get.plots: Logical, indicating whether to plot the intermediate plots. Default is TRUE.
get.csv: logical, indicating whether to save outputs. Default is TRUE.
n.cores: Integer, indicating the number of cores to use. if this parameter is null or missing Detect cores - 2 will be used

Value

A list of SCOPE simulations.

Examples

if (FALSE) { # \dontrun{
get.SCOPE.parallel(LUT, options.SCOPE = NULL, optipar = NULL,
                   path.out = "output", parallel = TRUE, leaf.model = 'fluspect-CX',
                   canopy.model = 'fourSAIL', get.outputs = 'Main', get.plots = TRUE)
} # }
