Function to compute total amount of precipitation fallen in strong (as defined by threshold) rainy days

Description

Function to compute total amount of precipitation fallen in strong (as defined by threshold) rainy days

Usage

prcptot_thre(
  pr,
  dates,
  threshold = 50,
  year = NULL,
  year.start = NULL,
  year.end = NULL,
  pnan = 25,
  lat = NULL
)

Arguments

pr

Vector with daily precipitation

dates

Matrix containing the full range of dates corresponding to "pr" (ndates x 3 size); e.g. rbind(c(1995, 3, 1), c(1995, 3, 2), ...)

threshold

Threshold considered to define strong rain. Must be in the same units of "pr"

year

Vector with years of interest (e.g. 1990:1995)

year.start

Vector of dates [in "YYYY-MM-DD" format] defining the beginning of a portion of interest within each year (e.g., the agronomic season)

year.end

Vector of dates [in "YYYY-MM-DD" format] defining the end of a portion of interest within each year (e.g., the agronomic season)

pnan

Any year with a percentage of NA data above "pnan" will be ignored

lat

Latitude (NULL) to indicate that latitude information is not used.

Value

Total amount of precipitation fallen in strong rainy days (per year)
