In loadflux: Explore Intra-Event Suspended Sediment Dynamics

Description

This function calculates Hysteresis Index proposed by Aich et al. (2014)

Usage

AHI(dataframe, q, ssc, .warn = TRUE)

Arguments

dataframe	A data set object.
q	numeric, water discharge variable.
ssc	numeric, suspended sediment concentration variable.
.warn	logical, indicating if the warning message should be displayed.

Value

a numeric value either NA

Examples

library(dplyr)
data(djan)
output_table <- hydro_events(dataframe = djan,
                             q = discharge,
                             datetime = time,
                             window = 21)

output_table %>%
  filter(he == 2) %>%
  AHI(q = discharge, ssc = SS)
