Probability dry for the non-random Bartlett-Lewis rectangular pulse model

Description

The function pdrBLRPM is the modelled probability of dry period using the equation of original Bartlett-Lewis rectangular pulse model. The model supports exponential, gamma and Weibul distribution for cell intensity.

Usage

pdrBLRPM(l,g,b,n,h) 

Arguments

l

Parameter of Bartlett-Lewis rectangular pulse model which determines the storm arrivals according to a Poisson process.

g

Parameter of Bartlett-Lewis rectangular pulse model which determines the entire length of the storm according to an exponential distribution.

b

Parameter of Bartlett-Lewis rectangular pulse model which determines the cell arrivals according to a Poisson process.

n

Parameter of Bartlett-Lewis rectangular pulse model which determines the individual cell lengths according to an exponential distribution.

h

Time scale (e.g. 1/60, 1/30, 1/12, 1, 6, 12, 24 hour etc.).

Value

pdr

Probability dry.
