Functions in climdex.pcic (1.1-6)

climdex.gsl

Growing Season Length
climdex.r95ptot

Total Daily Precipitation Exceeding 95%ile Threshold
climdex.cdd

The spells.can.span.years option specifies whether spells can cross year boundaries -- i.e., span years. The default for this is the same as for fclimdex.
climdex.r10mm

Precipitation Exceeding 10mm Per Day
select.blocks.gt.length

Select blocks of TRUE values of sufficient length.
ec.1018935

EC example data
nday.consec.prec.max

Number of days (less than, greater than, etc) a threshold
climdex.tx10p

Computation of these percentiles involves use of a boostrap procedure, described below but described in more depth in [Zhang, 2005].
climdex.tr

Tropical Nights
climdex.rx1day

Monthly Maximum 1-day Precipitation
growing.season.length

Flexible GSL function
climdex.txx

Monthly Maximum of Daily Maximum Temperature
get.series.lengths.at.ends

Get series length at ends
climdexInput.raw

Method for creating climdexInput object from vectors of data
climdex.r20mm

Precipitation Exceeding 20mm Per Day
climdex.prcptot

Total Daily Precipitation
climdex.tnx

Monthly Maximum of Daily Minimum Temperature
climdex.tn10p

Computation of these percentiles involves use of a boostrap procedure, described below but described in more depth in [Zhang, 2005].
climdex.quantile

Climdex quantile function
threshold.exceedance.duration.index

Sum of spell lengths exceeding daily threshold
number.days.op.threshold

Number of days (less than, greater than, etc) a threshold
climdex.dtr

Mean Diurnal Temperature Range
climdex.rx5day

Monthly Maximum 5-day Consecutive Precipitation
climdexInput

climdexInput
climdexInput.csv

Method for creating climdexInput object from CSV files
climdex.sdii

Simple Precpitation Intensity Index
climdex.id

Icing Days
climdex.rnnmm

Precipitation Exceeding A Specified Amount Per Day
percent.days.op.threshold

Lengths of strings of TRUE values
climdex.tx90p

Computation of these percentiles involves use of a boostrap procedure, described below but described in more depth in [Zhang, 2005].
climdex.tn90p

Computation of these percentiles involves use of a boostrap procedure, described below but described in more depth in [Zhang, 2005].
total.precip.op.threshold

Sum of precipitation above a threshold
get.last.monthday.of.year

Get the last month and day of the year
simple.precipitation.intensity.index

Simple Precipitation Intensity Index
climdex.cwd

The spells.can.span.years option specifies whether spells can cross year boundaries -- i.e., span years. The default for this is the same as for fclimdex.
climdex.tnn

Monthly Minimum of Daily Minimum Temperature
climdex.txn
