apply_hw_projections

A filepath to a comma-separated (.csv) file with a dataset
of extreme events and their characteristics, as generated by
<code><a rd-options="" href="/link/gen_hw_set?package=futureheatwaves&version=1.0.3" data-mini-rdoc="futureheatwaves::gen_hw_set">gen_hw_set</a></code>. The file at the specified filepath must
conform exactly to the format of the extreme event files created by
<code><a rd-options="" href="/link/gen_hw_set?package=futureheatwaves&version=1.0.3" data-mini-rdoc="futureheatwaves::gen_hw_set">gen_hw_set</a></code>.

hwPath

A character string giving the name of a function to apply to
the extreme event dataframe in the file specified by <code>hwPath</code>.
This function must only take one argument, <code>hw_datafr</code>, which
identifies a dataframe as generated by <code><a rd-options="" href="/link/gen_hw_set?package=futureheatwaves&version=1.0.3" data-mini-rdoc="futureheatwaves::gen_hw_set">gen_hw_set</a></code>. The
function should output a single value (e.g., average heat wave length)
when applied to the full dataframe.

TRUE or FALSE, specifying whether the function should
be applied separately for each study location.

city_specific


This function takes a user-specified function and applies is to a
single file of extreme event projections, as specified by <code>hwPath</code>.
It will generate either a single value for every ensemble member, if
<code>city_specific</code> is set to <code>FALSE</code>, or a value for every city, if
<code>city_specific</code> is set to <code>TRUE</code>.


Inputs a directory of climate projection files and, for each,
identifies and characterizes heat waves for specified study locations. The
definition used to identify heat waves can be customized. Heat wave
characterizations include several metrics of heat wave length, intensity,
and timing in the year. The heat waves that are identified can be
explored using a function to apply user-created functions across all
generated heat wave files.This work was supported in part by grants from

apply_hw_projections function

A filepath to a comma-separated (.csv) file with a dataset
of extreme events and their characteristics, as generated by
