compare_scenarios(
  df1,
  df2,
  metric_uncertainty,
  rules = CSLSscenarios::ecological_rules,
  bathymetry = CSLSdata::bathymetry
)

Arguments

df1

data frame with baseline hydrologic metrics

df2

data frame with hydrologic metrics of scenario being evaluated for significant impact.

metric_uncertainty

data frame with lake, metric, variable, and allowable "difference" due to uncertainty in the metric. Currently evaluated as the standard deviation in the "no irrigation" scenarios of the metric.

rules

data frame with ecological rules for ecological indicators related to hydrologic metrics.

bathymetry

data frame with bathymetric relationships with parameters like lake area, lake volume, plant area, etc.

Value

comparison, a data frame with the following columns:

lake

name of lake

hydrology

type of hydrologic metric (e.g., magnitude)

metric

hydrologic metric (e.g., exceedance_level)

variable

type of hydrologic metric (e.g. "90" for 90th percentile exceedance level)

category

category of ecological indicator (e.g., plants, fish)

indicator

ecological indicator (e.g., volume_habitat)

impacted

logical, TRUE if this ecological indicator is impacted from baseline under this scenario

significant_if

notes whether scenario is significant if scenario values are "higher" or "lower" than threshold values

value1

base value of hydrologic metric

threshold

threshold value of hydrologic metric

value2

scenario value of hydrologic metric

threshold_diff

difference between threshold and base value of hydrologic metric

diff

difference between scenario and base value of hydrologic metric

bathy_significant_if

notes whether scenario is significant if scenario child/bathymetric values are "higher" or "lower" than child/bathymetric threshold values

bathy1

base value of child/bathymetric metric (if applicable)

bathy_threshold

threshold value of child/bathymetric metric (if applicable)

bathy2

scenario value of child/bathymetric metric (if applicable)

bathy_threshold_diff

difference between bathy_threshold and bathy1

bathy_diff

difference between bathy2 and bathy1
