Method of Ford and Labosier (2017)

Description

This function follows the description contained in the original paper. We have as additional criterion that FD should have at least 3 pentads with SM lower than 30th percentile (as proposed by Dr. Ford in personal communication).

Usage

FordLabosier2017(vtime, vswc, crit = c(40, 20, 30))

Arguments

vtime	data frame column or vector containing date data
vswc	data frame column or vector containing soil water content values
crit	a vector of three value (default c(20,40,30)) indicating the model thresholds for lower, upper and persistance limits for SWC percentiles.

Value

A list with two data frames, one a time series with all data for FD identification, and the second with a summary of FD events.

Examples

FD_events <- FordLabosier2017(de_tha_d$time, de_tha_d$soil_water, crit = c(40,20,30))
