county_aggregates: Get county level output

In countyfloods: Quantify United States County-Level Flood Measurements

Description

Function aggregates gage-level output into county-level output

Usage

county_aggregates(flood_stats, county_cd)

Arguments

flood_stats	Data frame of gage-level output from flood_analysis function.
county_cd	Character vector with the county FIPS code(s)

Value

A data frame with the following columns:

Name	Type	Description
county	character	County name
state	character	State name
num_gage	numeric	Number of analyzed gages in county
avg_peak	numeric	Average flood ratio among county gages
max_peak	numeric	Maximum observed flood ratio
minor	numeric	Percentage of gages at or above "minor" flood class (flood ratio > 1)
moderate	numeric	Percentage of gages at or above "moderate" flood class (flood ratio > 1.5)
major	numeric	Percentage of gages at or above "major" flood class (flood ratio > 2)
extreme	numeric	Percentage of gages at or above "extreme" flood class (flood ratio > 5)
max_dur	numeric	Maximum flood duration in county
avg_dur	numeric	Average flood duration in county

If threshold = "NWS", the columns "minor", "moderate", "major", and "extreme" are replaced with two columns: "no_flood" and "yes_flood" which show the percentage of gages in the county with or without flooding.
