BLelements {HyetosMinute}R Documentation

Generate storm and cell characteristics of the Bartlett-Lewis rectangular pulse model

Description

The function BLelements generates all the characteristics of storms and cells according to the Bartlett-Lewis rectangular pulse model (The number of storm, the storm origins, the time windows within the cells are generated, the cell origins, the cell ends and the cell durations.

Usage

BLelements(T,l,f,k,a,v)

Arguments

T

A positive integer that specifies the length of simulation [0,T]. The units of T are days (d).

l

A positive number that specifies the rate of Poisson process. The time units are days (d).

f

Constant φ=γ/η.

k

Constant κ=β/η.

a

A positive number that specifies the shape parameter α of gamma distribution.

v

A positive number that specifies the scale parameter ν of gamma distribution.

Value

WetDrySequence

Factor of wet and dry days of the sequence.

CellOrigins

Vector of cell origins.

CellEnds

Vector of cell ends.

HtaParam

Vector of η parameter for each storm.

Ordering

A vector of cellduration order. It is used by other functions of the package.

NumOfCells

Vector of number of cells per storm.
