The parameters were extracted from Appendix B to the FOCUS surface water guidance using the R code given in the file data_generation/drift_parameters_focus.R installed with this package. The appendix itself is not included in the package, as its licence is not clear.

Usage

drift_parameters_focus

Format

A tibble::tibble.

Details

For the hinge distance, Inf was substituted for the cases where no hinge distance is given in the data, in this way parameters C and D are never used for any distance if A and B are used for the case that the distance is smaller than the hinge distance.
