The function estimates soil temperature (C) at a given depth and hour by approximating diurnal variation as sinusoidal. The function is adapted from Campbell and Norman (1998) and described in Riddell et al. (2018) .
Tsoil(T_g_max, T_g_min, hour, depth)numeric daily maximum soil surface temperature (C).
numeric daily minimum soil surface temperature (C).
numeric hour of the day.
numeric depth (cm).
numeric soil temperature (C).
