#Hydrostats

hydrostats is a set of tools to compute streamflow indices commonly used in hydrology and ecology such as: - basic summary statistics - high spells (magnitude, frequency, duration, timing etc.) - low spells - cease-to-flow spells - Colwell’s indices - partial series - baseflow components

Most of the functions can be used with the packages plyr and dplyr to return a dataframe of indices based on an additional grouping variable. This allows the analysis (for example) of data from multiple gauges simultaneously, without the need to write a for loop. While most functions return a single row dataframe, several functions will instead return a dataframe of individual spell characteristics for use in subsequent analysis and plotting.
