calculate.cyclonebudget: Calculate and plot the cyclone budget

In metno/esd: Climate analysis and empirical-statistical downscaling (ESD) package for monthly and daily data

Calculate and plot the cyclone budget

Description

Calculate and plot the cyclone budget: total - tracks all grid boxes visited, can be visited many times system - tracks all grid boxes visited, but only the first visit genesis - record the position of the first step lysis - record the position of the last step outN,E,S,W - from where did the cyclone come to the present grid box? inN,E,S,W - to where will the cyclone go from the present grid box?

Usage

calculate.cyclonebudget(
  traj,
  is = NULL,
  it = NULL,
  resolution.lon = 12,
  resolution.lat = 6,
  progress = TRUE,
  verbose = FALSE
)

Arguments

traj	A 'trajectory' or 'event' object of cyclone trajectories
is	A list providing space index, e.g., list(lon=c(-50,50),lat=c(45,70)
it	A list or data.frame providing time index, e.g. months, season, year range
resolution.lon	Longitudinal resolution
resolution.lat	Latitudinal resolution
progress	Show progress bar. TRUE or FALSE.
verbose	Print out diagnostics. TRUE or FALSE.

Value

A 'cyclonebudget' object: a list of various aspects of the cyclone budget.
