AMplot: Plot of the annual maximum sample

In UKFE: UK Flood Estimation

Plot of the annual maximum sample

Description

Provides a barplot for an annual maximum sample

Usage

AMplot(x, ylab = "Discharge (m3/s)", xlab = "Hydrological year", main = NULL)

Arguments

x	A data.frame with at least two columns. The first a date column and the second the annual maximum (AM) sequence. A third column with the station id can be applied which is then used for the default plot title.
ylab	Label for the y axis (character string).
xlab	Label for the x axis (character string).
main	Title for the plot (character string). The default is 'Annual maximum sample:', where : is followed by an ID number if this is included in a third column of the dataframe x.

Details

When used with a GetAM object or any data.frame with dates/POSIXct in the first column, the date-times are daily or sub-daily. Therefore, although it's an annual maximum (AM) sequence, some bars may be closer together depending on the number of days between them.

Value

A barplot of the annual maximum sample
