flow_variation_considered_as_fast_as_possible_in_natural_hydrology: flow_variation_considered_as_fast_as_possible_in_natural_hydrology

In FannyVille/hydroSEG: Hydrograph segmentation and discretization between natural event or hydropeak

Description

Courret (2014) shows that in natural hydrology the rise and fall times of hydrographs follow an exponential law. Q= 4 * exp(-a * t^b) The value of the coefficient a can be expressed according to the module of the river. The value of the coefficient b is depends on the type of variation: increase or decrease

Usage

flow_variation_considered_as_fast_as_possible_in_natural_hydrology(
  Stream_Module,
  b_drop = 0.75,
  b_rise = 1.15
)

Arguments

Stream_Module	A numeric value corresponding to the average inter annual flow rate ""module"".
b_drop	A numeric value of the coefficient b for decrease. By default b_drop = 0.75
b_rise	A numeric value of the coefficient b for increase. By default b_rise = 1.15

Value

A table which reconstitutes the fastest variations in natural regime according to the module
