Description

Wind effect correction using generalized logistic functions.

Parameters

	Name	Type	Identifier	Description	Constraints
Input	Boundary Layer	grid, input	`BOUNDARY`	The absolute vertical distance to the boundary layer.	-
	Wind Effect	grid, input	`WIND`	-	-
	Observations	grid, input	`OBSERVED`	Observations used for local scaling factor calibration (e.g. precipitation, cloudiness).	-
Output	Calibrated Scaling Factor	grid, output	`B_GRID`	Calibrated scaling factor used in the wind effect correction.	-
Output	Corrected Wind Effect	grid, output	`WINDCORR`	-	-
