  wd = NULL,
  verbose_mode = FALSE,
  compress_rasters = FALSE
)

dem

Input raster DEM file.

output

Output raster file.

dist

Maximum search distance for breach paths in cells.

max_cost

Optional maximum breach cost (default is Inf).

min_dist

Optional flag indicating whether to minimize breach distances.

flat_increment

Optional elevation increment applied to flat areas.

fill

Optional flag indicating whether to fill any remaining unbreached depressions.

wd

Changes the working directory.

verbose_mode

Sets verbose mode. If verbose mode is False, tools will not print output messages.
