GetDC: Occurrence of compound dry-cold events

In CompoundEvents: A package for compound events modeling and assessment

Description

Take the precipitation and temperature and extract dry-cold occurrence based on thresholds.The binary variable of the dry and cold (DC) event can be otained.

Usage

GetDC(mp,mt,threp,thret)

Arguments

mp	Precipitation
mt	Temperature
threp	Threshold of precipitation (e.g., 20th percentile)
thret	Threshold of temperature (e.g., 20th percentile)

Value

The occurrence of compound wet-hot event (0-1 binary variable)
