generate_hw: Generate h-w

In jschap1/WSEw: River Geometry Package for Studying Water Surface Elevation-Width Relationships

Description

Generates height and width data for each cross section, as it might be sampled by SWOT

Usage

generate_hw(cross_sections, gauge_data, dx = 1, n.obs)

Arguments

cross_sections	list of x coordinates, bed elevations, and depths for each transect
dx	used for computing width with trapezoidal rule
n.obs	number of SWOT observations to make. The UMRB is observed 1-2 times per 21-day cycle
dist	type of distribution for SWOT-sampled stage values.
pars	vector of distribution parameters

Details

Makes a vector of WSE values from the minimum bed elevation to the bankfull WSE Computes flow width for each WSE-w value. Puts the estimated flow widths into the WSEw data frame

Value

WSEw data frame containing WSE and flow width values

Examples

xWSEw <- calc_WSEw()
