IDHeatwavesCPP

Number of days that a heat wave lasts under the
user's definition

heatwaveLength

A vector of 1s and 0s the length of the
number of days in the time series. 1 means the temperature for that
day exceeds the calculated threshold; 0 means it does not exceed the
threshold.

This function identifies heat waves that are a certain number of days long.


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
the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (R00ES022631), the
