gof: GOF measures

Description

Goodness of Fit measures (GOF) for two vectors.
gofNA: not exported, checks input for each of the functions:
rsquare: Coefficient of determination (R2)
rmse: Root Mean Square Error (for minimizing in optim)
nse: Nash-Sutcliffe efficiency, based on RHydro::eval.NSeff
kge: Kling-Gupta efficiency (better than NSE), based on hydroGOF::KGE, where there are many more options

Usage

gofNA(a, b, quiet = FALSE, fun = "")

rsquare(a, b, quiet = FALSE)

rmse(a, b, quiet = FALSE)

nse(a, b, quiet = FALSE)

kge(a, b, quiet = FALSE)

Value

Single numerical value

Arguments

a

Numerical vector with observational data

b

Simulated data (to be compared to a)

quiet

Should NA-removal warnings be suppressed? This may be helpful within functions. DEFAULT: FALSE

fun

Character string with function name for error and warning messages
