## Introduction

The R package LapseRateCalculator is an example of lapse rate calculator applied to dew point temperature (derived from T_Air and RH). The algorithm **example_transect_dew_point.R** in folder **inst** applies function **Tdew** in folder **R** to produce dew point temperature for each station. All station in folder *data/Input* are analyzed togheder and the lapse rate is calculated for each hour using a linear fit model. 

## How to start

Clone the package from https://github.com/EURAC-Ecohydro/LapseRateCalculator

## How to install

```{r,echo=TRUE, eval=FALSE}

install_packages("devtools")
library(devtools)
install_github("EURAC-Ecohydro/LapseRateCalculator")
library("LapseRateCalculator")

```



## How to use

In folder **inst** there is the script example_transect_dew_point.R 

In folder **R** there are some functions used by scripts in inst folder

In folder **data** there are subfolders where put input data, support files and a folder where scripts save outputs
