Description Usage Arguments Details Value Author(s) References See Also Examples

This function computes a comprehensive set of indices using the climdex.pcic package.

1	computeClimdex(myClimdex)

myClimdex

A climdexInput object.

This function calls a number of functions for annual and monthly indices from the climdex.pcic package.

The following annual indices are computed, always using the default options of the climdex.pcic package: cdd, cwd, fd, id, r20mm, r99ptot, rx1day, sdii, tn10p, tnn, tr, tx90p, txx, csdi, dtr, gsl, prcptot, r10mm, r95ptot, rnnmm, rx5day, su, tn90p, tnx, tx10p, txn, wsdi.

The following monthly indices are computed, always using the default options of the climdex.pcic package: rx1day, tn10p, tnn, tx90p, txx, dtr, rx5day, tn90p, tnx, tx10p, txn.

A list:

`annual.climdex`	A zoo object containing a comprehensive set of annual climdex indices.
`monthly.climdex`	A zoo object containing a comprehensive set of monthly climdex indices.
