TSSRESTREND: Time Series Segmentation of Residual Trends (MAIN FUNCTION)

Description Usage Arguments Value Note Author(s) See Also Examples

View source: R/TSS_RESTREND.R

Description

Time Series Segmented Residual Trend (TSS.RESTREND) methodology.Takes in a complete monthly time series of a VI and its corrosponding precipitation (and temperature). It then looks looks for breakpoints using the BFAST function. The significance of the breakpoin in the residuals and the VPR is assessed using a Chow test, then, the total time series change is calculated.

Arguments

CTSR.VI

Complete Monthly Time Series of Vegetation Index values. An object of class 'ts' object without NA's.

ACP.table

A table of every combination of offset period and accumulation period.for precipitation ACP.table can be calculated using the climate.accumulator.

ACT.table

A table of every combination of offset period and accumulation period.for temperature ACP.table can be calculated using the climate.accumulator.

CTSR.RF

Complete Time Series of Rainfall. An object of class 'ts' object without NA's and be the same length and cover the same time range as CTSR.VI. If ACP.table is provided, CTSR.RF will be automitaclly calculated using the ACP.calculator

CTSR.TM

Complete Time Series of temperature. An object of class 'ts' object without NA's and be the same length and cover the same time range as CTSR.VI. Default (CTSR.TM=NULL). If ACT.table is provided, CTSR.RF will be automitaclly calculated using the ACP.calculator

anu.VI

The annual (Growing season) max VI. Must be a object of class 'ts' without NA's. if anu.VI=FALSE, it will be calculated from the CTSR.VI using AnMaxVI.

acu.RF

The optimal accumulated rainfall for anu.VI. Must be a object of class 'ts' without NA's and be of equal length and temporal range to anu.VI. if anu.RF=FALSE, it will be calculated from ACP.table usingthe AnnualClim.Cal

acu.TM

The optimal accumulated rainfall for anu.TM. Must be a object of class 'ts' without NA's and be of equal length and temporal range to anu.TM. if anu.TM=FALSE, it will be calculated from ACT.table usingthe AnnualClim.Cal

VI.index

the index of the CTSR.VI ts that the anu.VI values occur at. Must be the same length as anu.VI. NOTE. R indexs from 1 rather than 0. if VI.index=FALSE, it will be calculated from the CTSR.VI using AnMaxVI.

rf.b4

If a breakpoint in the VPR is detected this is the optimial accumulated rainfall before the breakpoint. must be the same length as the anu.VI. If ACP.table is provided it will be generated using AnnualClim.Cal

rf.af

If a breakpoint in the VPR is detected this is the optimial accumulated rainfall after the breakpoint. must be the same length as the anu.VI. If ACP.table is provided it will be generated using AnnualClim.Cal

sig

Significance of all the functions. defualt sig=0.05

season

See bfast. This season value only applies to bfast done using the CTS VPR. if a non VPR adjusted BFAST is performed.a harmonic season is used.

exclude

A numberic vector containg months excluded from breakpoint detection. This was included to allow sensor transitions to be masked.

allow.negative

If true, will not preference positive slope in either CTSR or VI calculations. default=FALSE is set because negative associations between rainfall and vegetation in water limited ecosystems is unexpected If temperature data is included then this paramter is forced to TRUE.

allowneg.retest

default=FALSE If temperature data is provided but found to not be significant then a retest is performed. This paramter is to allow negative on re-test.

h

See bfast, The.minimal segment size between potentially detected breaks in the trend model given as fraction relative to the sample size (i.e. the minimal number of observations in each segment divided by the total length of the timeseries. Default h = 0.15.

retnonsig

Bool. New in v0.3.0. Allows TSSRESTREND to return change estimates of values that filed the sig component in the residual analysis. defualt FALSE will give the same result as eralier versions.

Value

An object of class 'TSSRESTREND' is a list with the following elements:

summary
Method

The method used to determine total change. (RESTREND see RESTREND, segmented.RESTREND see seg.RESTREND, segmented.VPR see seg.VPR)

Total.Change

The total significant change. Residual.Change + VPR.HeightChange.

Residual.Change

The change in the VPR Residuals over the time period

VPR.HeightChange

The change in VI at mean rainfall for a "ts" with a significant breakpoint in the VPR

model.p

p value of the regression model fitted to the VPR. See lm

residual.p

p value of the regression model fitted to the VPR Residuals. See lm

VPRbreak.p

the p value associated with the break height. See lm

bp.year

The Year of the most significant breakpoint

ts.data

The Time series used in analysis. See Arguments for description

  • CTSR.VI

  • CTSR.RF

  • anu.VI

  • VI.index

  • acu.RF

  • StdVar.RF see seg.VPR)

ols.summary
chow.summary

summary of the most significant breakpoint.

chow.ind

Summary of every detected breakpoint

OLS.table

A matrix containing the coefficents for the CTS.fit, VPR.fit, RESTREND.fit and segVPR.fit

TSSRmodels

models of class "lm" lm and class "bfast" bfast generated.

Note

if ACP.table = FALSE, CTSR.RF and acu.RF must be provided as well as rf.b4 and rf.af for 'ts' with a breakpoint in the VPR.
