Outputs list of summary statistics of a Tides oabject
# S3 method for Tides
summary(object, ...)A list containing:
Inundation frequency: see IF(). The proportion of high water tides higher than h0. A warning will be displayed when the inundation frequency is 100%.
Inundations during time span, when the waterlevel > h0.
Average inundation height. A warning will be displayed when the inundation frequency is 100%.
Average inundation height (per cycle).
time units
Average inundation time, in Tunitssum A warning will be displayed when h0 is never inundated
Average inundation time (per cycle), in Tunitssum
Maximal inundation time, in Tunitssum
Average dry time, in Tunitssum
Average dry time (per cycle), in Tunitssum
Maximal dry time, in Tunitssum
Average high water. Note that the calculated HW and LW are always >= h0!
Average low water. Note that the calculated HW and LW are always >= h0!
Average tidal range. Note that the calculated HW and LW are always >= h0!
number of (tidal) cycles
number of full tidal cycles (used to measure averages per cycle)
number of gaps
total gaps time in mins
number of continuous timeseries
total continuous timeseries time (without gaps, also tidal phases before and after gap are not included)
total inundation time (without gaps, and also tidal phases before and after gap are not included)
total dry time (without gaps, and also tidal phases before and after gap are not included)
proportion of total time inundated (without gaps, and also tidal phases before and after gap are not included)
DTTsum/TSsum # proportion of total time dry (without gaps, and also tidal phases before and after gap are not included)
Tides object (e.g. the result of TidalCharacteristics)
Not used (Added for S3 method compatibility)
