PoolGroup: Fitting a index-flood model on a pooling groups

Description Usage Arguments Value References Examples

Description

Returns a pooling group model with regional parameters and common homogeneity statistics diagnostics. The function can be used for analysing annual maximum or peaks over threshold.

Usage

1

Arguments

lmom

Matrix of the at-site L-moments of all sites.

intersite

An intersite object. Alternative to pass L-moments directly.

nrec

Record Length of each site. If a single value is passed, it is applied to all sites.

nk

Size of the desired pooling groups.

distr

At-site distribution of each site. If a single value is passed, it is applied to all sites.

distance

Vector of distance with the target site. The target is included with distance zero.

method

Type of data used. Either annual maximums ('amax') or peaks over threshold ('pot').

diagnostic

Shoud the diagnostics homogeneity and Z-score be evaluated.

diagnostic.nsim

Number of simulations used to evaluate the diagnostics.

pvalue

Logical. Should the p-value of the homogeneity test be computed?

pvalue.nrep, pvalue.nsim

Number of repetitions and simulations used for evaluating the p-value.

inter

Type of intersite correlation used for simulation. For ''mat''the empirical correlation matrix is used directly. For ''avg'' the average coefficient of correlation is used.

inter.corr

Intersite correlation matrix of all sites.

Value

id

List of the selected sites

nrec

Record lengths.

distance

Distance matrix.

lmom

Matrix of L-moments.

rlmom

Regional L-moments.

ntot

Number of station-year.

distr

Regional distribution

para

Parameters of the regional distribution

method

Type of analysis. Annual maximum ('amax') or peaks over threshold('pot')

stat

Homogenous criteria and Z-score for goodness-of-fit.

pvalue

P-values of 'stat'

discord

Discordance measures.

inter

Type of intersite correlation model used.

inter.corr

Intersite correlation matrix

inter.avg

Pairwise average of the intersite correlation.
