In UKFE: UK Flood Estimation

Urban adjustment factor (UAF) and percentage runoff urban adjustment factor (PRUAF)

Description

UAF and PRUAF from catchment descriptors for QMED estimation in ungauged urban catchments

Usage

UAF(CDs = NULL, URBEXT2000, BFIHOST)

Arguments

CDs	catchment descriptors derived from either GetCDs or CDsXML
URBEXT2000	quantification of catchment urbanisation (used when CDs is not)
BFIHOST	baseflow index as a function of hydrological soil type of the catchment (used when CDs is not)

Value

a data.frame with columns UAF and PRUAF

Examples

#Get some catchment descriptors for an urban catchment calculate the UAF & PRUAF
CDs.53006 <- GetCDs(53006)
UAF(CDs.53006)
#Calculate UAF and PRUAF using a user input URBEXT2000 and BFIHOST
UAF(URBEXT2000 = 0.1138, BFIHOST = 0.3620)
