getIDI: Inter-Draught Interval (IDI)

In discharge: Fourier Analysis of Discharge Data

Description

Compute Inter-Draught Interval (IDI) from the given residual values.

Usage

getIDI(resid, years, highflow.start, highflow.end, unique.years,
  for.year = NULL)

Arguments

resid	A vector of residual values generated with respect to the baseline signal
years	A vector of years corrosponding to the residual values
highflow.start	A vector giving start index of high-flow window in each year
highflow.end	A vector giving end index of high-flow window in each year
unique.years	A vector or year values corresponding to the highflow.start and highflow.end values.
for.year	(optional) Calculate IDI values only for the given year in this argument. If argument is omitted, IDI values for all years are calculated.

Value

Data frame containing two columns:

year	First column, represents year
IDI	Second column, represents IDI values

Examples

# load sample data
data("sycamore")
x = sycamore

# get streamflow object for the sample data
x.streamflow = asStreamflow(x)

# prepare baseline signal 
x.bl = prepareBaseline(x.streamflow)

# signal parts
x.sp = getSignalParts(x.bl$pred2, candmin = c(40:125), candmax = c(190:330),
                      years = x.streamflow$data$year, 
                      months = x.streamflow$data$month,
                      jdays = x.streamflow$data$jday)

# IDI
idi = getIDI(x.bl$resid.sig, x.streamflow$data$year, x.sp$HF.window.start, 
             x.sp$HF.window.end, x.sp$year)
