GetDH: Occurrence of compound dry-hot events

In CompoundEvents: A package for compound events modeling and assessment

Description

Take the precipitation and temperature and extract the occurrence based on thresholds. The binary variable of the dry-hot (or dry-warm) can be obtained.

Usage

GetDH(mp,mt,threp,thret)

Arguments

mp	Precipitation
mt	Temperature
threp	Threshold of precipitation (e.g., 20th percentile)
thret	Threshold of temperature (e.g., 80th percentile)

Value

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