Arguments
modelName
Character string of climate model name (e.g., "bcc1"). This
name is generated from the subdirectory name for the climate model within
dataFolder.
experiments
Character string of the experiment(s). Possible variables
are the names of elements in the list object specified by the
dataDirectories argument in gen_hw_set. dataFolder
Character string with pathway to a directory with
climate projection data. This directory must have a specific structure--
see the futureheatwaves vignette for guidance on setting up this
directory.
coordinateFilenames
Character string the with filename of each
grid point location file. This filename should be identical for all
ensemble member subdirectories included in the dataFolder directory.
See the package vignette for an example of the required structure for this
file.
tasFilenames
Character string the with filename of each climate
projection file. This filename should be identical for all ensemble
member subdirectories included in the dataFolder directory. See the
package vignette for an example of the required structure for this file.
timeFilenames
Character string the with filename of each projection
dates file. This filename should be identical for all ensemble
member subdirectories included in the dataFolder directory. See
the package vignette for an example of the required structure for this
file.
dataDirectories
A list object, with two elements, one for each of the
two subdirectories included in the main directory. Typically, these will
be separate directories of historical and projection experiments from
climate models. Each element of the list should be named with the name of
the subdirectory and should provide a numeric vector with the starting and
ending years of the data within each of the two subdirectories (e.g.,
list("historical" = c(1990, 1999), "rcp85" = c(2060, 2079))
for a dataFolder with historical experiment data for 1990 to 1999
and RCP8.5 projections for 2060 to 2079).
