paleo_slope
estimates the slope of an ancient river. Originally developed in Trmapush et al. 2014. Implemented from Mahon et al. (2018)
1 | paleo_slope(alpha0, alpha1, alpha2, D50, Hbf)
|
alpha0 |
Empirical constant. Value and associated uncertainty from Table 1 in Mahon + McElroy 2018. |
alpha1 |
Empirical constant. Value and associated uncertainty from Table 1 in Mahon + McElroy 2018. |
alpha2 |
Empirical constant. Value and associated uncertainty from Table 1 in Mahon + McElroy 2018. |
D50 |
The median bedload grain size. Determined from samples. |
Hbf |
The mean bankfull flow depth. Determined from preserved barforms. |
Returns a vector S
, the dimensionless paleoslope of the ancient river.
