tc — tc • magpie4

Calculates TC rates based on a MAgPIE gdx file

Usage

tc(
  gdx,
  file = NULL,
  level = "reg",
  annual = TRUE,
  avrg = FALSE,
  baseyear = 1995,
  type = "crop"
)

gdx: GDX file
file: a file name the output should be written to using write.magpie
level: Level of regional aggregation; "reg" (regional), "glo" (global), "regglo" (regional and global) or any other aggregation level defined in superAggregate
annual: If TRUE, annual values are reported. If FALSE, the values for the whole timestep are reported. If FALSE, avrg has no effect
avrg: If FALSE the annual tc rates of the current period are returned, otherwise the average annual tc rate for the period tbase to tn is returned. tbase defaults to the first timestep (see baseyear)
baseyear: Determines the base year timestep for annual tc calculation. Average tc rates for later timesteps are calculated with respect to baseyear. No tc rates for timesteps before baseyear are returned)
type: currently only 'crop'

A MAgPIE object containing tc rates. Annual ones if annual=TRUE, for the whole timestep if annual=FALSE.
