Generate a unique spline model for each OTM on each date (Julian) while the OTM was measuring

Usage

gen_otm_splines(otm_data, knot_p)

Arguments

otm_data

An OTM data tibble obtained via the function rnp_otms_data.

knot_p

The number of knots the spline model should have to describe the temperature dynamics of the OTM for a given day taken as a percentage of the total number of operative measurements in a given day.

Value

A nested data frame (tibble) with columns for otm_id,

year, doy and spline. The spline column is nested and contains a OTM, year and DOY smooth.spline model with the specified number of knots.
