This package EGRETci implements a set of approaches to the analysis of uncertainty associated with WRTDS trend analysis as implemented in the EGRET package.
See: http://authors.elsevier.com/sd/article/S1364815215300220 for more details.
The EGRETci package is designed to carry out three specific types of tasks.
Evaluate a water quality trend over a specific span of years and
produce a variety of tabular results. This is done with a short workflow
involving the functions: trendSetUp
and wBT
.
The results come in three forms: 1) console output, which shows the
bootstrap replicate process as it is underway and the results when it
has finished, 2) a text file that shows the results of the bootstrap
analysis (a subset of what is included in the console output), and 3) a
set of outputs in a named list called eBoot. The contents of eBoot are
described below.
Plot histograms of values for the trend magnitudes, expressed in
percent change over the specified period, for flow-normalized
concentration and flow-normalized flux. This is done with the function
plotHistogramTrend
. It depends on outputs contained in
eBoot. Note that there are a number of custom outputs similar to these
histograms that can be developed from the contents of eBoot (for
example, what is the likelihood that the flow normalized flux decreased
by more than 2000 kg/year over the trend period). Such analyses would
require a small amount of script writing by the user.
Plot confidence bands around the computed trends in
flow-normalized concentration and flow-normalized flux. This is done
using a function called ciCalculations
and then, using the
output from that function running two functions that produce the
confidence band graphics for concentration and flux respectively
(plotConcHistBoot
, and
plotFluxHistBoot
).

When using the WRTDS
model (and corresponding confidence
intervals), it is important to be able to reproduce the results in the
future. The following version of R and package dependencies were used
most recently to pass the embedded tests within this package. There is
no guarantee of reproducible results using future versions of R or
updated versions of package dependencies; however, we will make diligent
efforts to test and update future modeling environments.
