run_stochasim: Run the STOCHASIM model

Description Usage Arguments

Description

run_stochasim executes the stochastic channel simulator code The model predicts channel widening when a threshold shear stress is exceeded and otherwise predicts channel narrowing due to vegetation colonization. The length of the simulation is determined by the length of the input vector containing the random sequence of annual peak flows (which can be created using sim_flood or generated by the user).

Usage

1
run_stochasim(gsd, Q, slope, H = 0)

Arguments

gsd

a data frame containing information on the bed surface GSD (see sim_gsd)

Q

a vector of floods to be used sequentially in the simulation (m3/s)

slope

reach average channel slope (m/m)

H

(optional) estimated effective rooting depth, affecting bank stability (m)
