xcorPlot: Exploring correlation function

Description Usage Arguments Value Examples

Description

xcorPlot explores the fit of the proposed approximation of cross-correlation.

Usage

1
xcorPlot(object, alpha, theta, concurrentMin, DistMeth = 2, plot = TRUE)

Arguments

object

A list of the imported data from importPeakFQ orimportWREG.

alpha

A number, alpha is a parameter used in the estimated cross-correlation between site records. See equation 20 in the WREG v. 1.05 manual.

theta

A number, theta is a parameter used in the estimated cross-correlation between site records. See equation 20 in the WREG v. 1.05 manual.

concurrentMin

A number specifying the minimum number of years of concurrent record required to estimate cross-correlation.

DistMeth

A value of 1 indicates that the "Nautical Mile" approximation should be used to calculate inter-site distances. A value of 2 designates the Haversine approximation. See Dist.WREG.

plot

A logical spcifying if the plot should be created.

Value

If plot=FALSE, the Nash-Sutcliffe model efficieny is returned.

importedData <- importPeakFQ(pfqPath = peakFQdir, gisFile = gisFilePath)

# Build cross-correlation plot
