okBATHTUB 0.1.10

Addresses the four items from CRAN’s review of v0.1.7.

• References in DESCRIPTION now have linked DOIs/URLs per CRAN formatting conventions: Walker (1985), Walker (1996), and Carlson

  1977. are now linked via the form authors (year) <doi:...> or authors (year) <https:...>. Vollenweider (1976) and Larsen and Mercier (1976) remain cited by name only; both are pre-DOI-era journal references for which a verified DOI is not readily established.

• Expanded acronyms in DESCRIPTION: SWAT is now spelled out as “Soil and Water Assessment Tool” with URL https://swat.tamu.edu, and HAWQS as “U.S. EPA Hydrologic and Water Quality System” with URL https://hawqs.tamu.edu.

• Added \value{} to print.okBATHTUB.Rd and summary.okBATHTUB.Rd documenting that both methods return the input okBATHTUB object invisibly and describing the structure and purpose of the side-effect console output.

• Replaced \dontrun{} with \donttest{} in R/plot.R examples. All four affected blocks (ok_plot_response(), ok_plot_scenario(), ok_plot_segments(), ok_plot_tsi()) require ggplot2 from Suggests. \donttest{} is the appropriate wrapper per the CRAN cookbook: examples are skipped during automated R CMD check --as-cran runs that omit Suggests packages, but remain runnable for users with ggplot2 installed.

okBATHTUB 0.1.7

• Corrected GitHub URLs in DESCRIPTION. The repository is at 0011235813/Oklahoma-BATHTUB (the package source is in the okBATHTUB/ subdirectory of that repo); v0.1.6 had pointed to a non-existent 0011235813/okBATHTUB URL.
• Added the pkgdown documentation site as the primary URL: entry (https://0011235813.github.io/Oklahoma-BATHTUB/).
• Updated README install instructions to use the correct remotes::install_github(..., subdir = "okBATHTUB") form.

okBATHTUB 0.1.6

• Restored URL: and BugReports: fields in DESCRIPTION. The GitHub repository (https://github.com/0011235813/okBATHTUB) is now public.

okBATHTUB 0.1.5

Addresses two of the four NOTE items returned by win-builder R-release (R 4.6.0) for the v0.1.4 pre-submission check.

• Removed broken GitHub URLs from DESCRIPTION. URL: and BugReports: previously pointed to a not-yet-public GitHub repository, causing 404 responses in CRAN’s URL-validity check. These will be re-added once the repository is made public.

• Updated broken EPA URL in hawqs-linkage.Rmd from the deprecated epa.gov/cwsrf/clean-water-state-revolving-fund-cwsrf subpath to the current canonical landing page for the 604(b) Water Quality Management Planning Grants program: epa.gov/nps/water-quality-management-planning-grants.

The remaining two NOTE items (“possibly misspelled words” and “new submission”) are not actionable on the package side and are explained to CRAN reviewers in cran-comments.md.

okBATHTUB 0.1.4

Three small polish fixes prior to CRAN submission.

• Removed R 4.2+ native pipe placeholder syntax from a vignette. vignettes/hawqs-linkage.Rmd previously used do.call(rbind, args = _), which requires R >= 4.2.0 but DESCRIPTION declares R >= 4.1.0. Replaced with the equivalent do.call(rbind, annual_list) two-step pattern that works on any supported R.

• Namespaced readr::read_fwf() and readr::fwf_cols() calls in the hawqs-linkage.Rmd SWAT-input example chunk. The chunk is eval=FALSE so this is cosmetic, but the namespaced form is clearer to readers and removes a potential no visible global function reviewer note.

• Generalized “Arcadia Lake” examples in getting-started.Rmd and hawqs-linkage.Rmd to “a representative Cross Timbers reservoir” where the example uses morphometry (890 ha / 4.2 m) that doesn’t match the bundled ok_reservoirs entry for Arcadia Lake (716 ha / 4.6 m). The 890/4.2 figures remain the canonical Walker Model 1 numerical reference case used throughout tests and docstring examples; only the labeling was changed.

• Strengthened cross-dataset consistency test to validate that ok_reservoirs and ok_lake_ecoregions agree on both the EPA L3 code and name for shared lakes, and that all rows within ok_reservoirs sharing the same eco_l3_name also share the same eco_l3_code. Catches a class of bug that a name-only check would miss.

okBATHTUB 0.1.3

Pre-CRAN forensic review pass addressing 14 findings from the v0.1.2 review. R CMD check --as-cran continues to pass cleanly (0 errors, 0 warnings, 0 notes).

Critical fixes

• ok_reservoirs and ok_lake_ecoregions ecoregion assignments now agree. v0.1.2 had 18 of 26 shared lakes disagreeing on EPA Level III ecoregion (e.g. Hugo Lake was “South Central Plains” in ok_reservoirs but “Ouachita Mountains” in ok_lake_ecoregions). The eco_l3_name and eco_l3_code columns in ok_reservoirs.csv have been regenerated by joining against the authoritative lake_ecoregion_lookup.csv, with manual fallback for lakes not in the lookup (Optima Lake -> Southwestern Tablelands). A new regression test (test-reservoirs.R: ok_reservoirs and ok_lake_ecoregions agree on ecoregion for shared lakes) guards against future drift. 37 of 40 reservoirs received corrected ecoregion assignments.

• R/plot.R source-file comment header no longer claims “Oklahoma Water Resources Board - Water Quality Division” institutional attribution. The earlier cleanup pass scrubbed plot captions and visible titles but missed this source-file comment.

• vignettes/hawqs-linkage.Rmd reference list no longer cites a current OWRB grant project as a reference. Replaced with a generic EPA Clean Water Act Section 604(b) program reference.

Major fixes

• DESCRIPTION now leads with Walker BATHTUB Model 1 as the default retention model, with Vollenweider/Larsen-Mercier as the alternative. The v0.1.2 description had this inverted, which would have given a CRAN reviewer a misleading first impression about model fidelity.

• ok_lake_ecoregion() now has a stable return type. Always returns a data frame, regardless of how many lakes match. The simplify argument is deprecated (retained for backward compatibility with a deprecation warning). Use $eco_l3_name to extract the ecoregion name. v0.1.2’s behavior of returning character on single match and data.frame otherwise was a recurring source of brittle caller code.

Minor fixes

• ok_load() now emits a warning when tp_inflow_ugl < 1 ug/L to flag unphysically low TP values that would produce unreliable Chl-a and Secchi predictions.

• Removed empty comment = c(ORCID = "") from Authors@R in DESCRIPTION.

• Fixed encoding mojibake (0?1) -> (0-1) in R/scenarios.R docstring.

• Walker Model 1 retention now documents the implicit units of the A1 coefficient (m^3/(mg*yr)) and explicitly notes the defensive guard branch is unreachable under normal operation.

• data-raw/CALIBRATION_README.md documents a newly discovered discrepancy between ok_ecoregion_assignment.R and the bundled lake_ecoregion_lookup.csv. The CSV is treated as authoritative because it is what was fed into the calibration regressions; the script-CSV reconciliation is queued as a future recalibration task.

okBATHTUB 0.1.2

This is a metadata-correction release. Coefficient values are unchanged. Only the calibration metadata (sample sizes, ecoregion fallback flags) has been corrected to match the source-of-truth calibration report (data-raw/ok_calibration_report.xlsx).

New bundled dataset and lookup helper

• ok_lake_ecoregions — a data frame of 214 Oklahoma (and several border) lakes with their EPA Level III ecoregion assignment and monitoring coverage statistics (number of monitoring stations, maximum years of TP/Chl-a/Secchi/TN coverage in the 2000-2024 window).

• ok_lake_ecoregion() — a convenience lookup function returning the ecoregion name for a given lake. Usable directly with coefficients = "oklahoma":

  eco <- ok_lake_ecoregion("Tenkiller", exact = FALSE)
  ok_load(inflow_m3yr = 1e9, tp_inflow_ugl = 60,
          coefficients = "oklahoma", ecoregion = eco)

  Monitoring coverage columns are a 2000-2024 snapshot and are not updated automatically; treat them as a useful starting point, not a current inventory.

Calibration metadata corrections

Following an audit against the calibration report XLSX, the following sample-size values in .oklahoma_coefficients() were corrected:

The Cross Timbers Secchi value of n=265 in v0.1.1 (which had exceeded the statewide pooled n=250 — mathematically impossible if Cross Timbers were a subset of the pooled fit) was the original trigger that prompted this audit. The corrected values are consistent with the joint TP+Chl-a+Secchi filter described in data-raw/CALIBRATION_README.md: the same filtered records feed both regressions, so per-ecoregion n values are identical across the Chl-a and Secchi fits.

Calibration documentation added

The full calibration provenance is now bundled in data-raw/:

• CALIBRATION_README.md — methodology, R^2 threshold rationale, ecoregion-by-ecoregion outcomes, known limitations, recalibration instructions
• ok_calibration.R — the script that fit the regressions
• ok_calibration_report.xlsx — full coefficient table, raw ecoregion fits, statewide pooled fits, and the calibration dataset
• ok_calibration_plots/ — diagnostic plots per ecoregion
• ok_ecoregion_assignment.R and lake_ecoregion_lookup.csv — ecoregion assignments for 214 Oklahoma lakes

These materials are not run at install or load time; they document how the bundled "oklahoma" coefficient values were derived.

Other clarifications

• Ozark Highlands Secchi correctly falls back to statewide pooled (R^2=0.228 below 0.25 threshold). v0.1.1 implemented this correctly by code path (since Ozark Highlands was never in the per-ecoregion Secchi list) but the comment was incomplete. v0.1.2 documents the fallback explicitly.

• .oklahoma_coefficients() docstring now references the calibration README and the source-of-truth XLSX, and clarifies why the per- ecoregion n values do not sum to the pooled total (the pooled fit includes records from ecoregions whose per-ecoregion fits did not meet thresholds).

okBATHTUB 0.1.1

This is a remediation release addressing seven issues identified in a v0.1.0 forensic review.

Major scientific correction

• TP retention default is now Walker BATHTUB Model 1 (second-order available-P), the canonical default of the BATHTUB program. In v0.1.0, the default was the Vollenweider (1976) / Larsen-Mercier

  1976. first-order hydraulic-residence form, mislabelled as the “Walker BATHTUB default.” This was incorrect: Walker’s BATHTUB documentation identifies Model 1 as the calibrated default, and treats the Vollenweider / Larsen-Mercier form as Walker Model 5 (“Northern Lakes”), which is explicitly not calibrated to U.S. Army Corps of Engineers reservoir data.

  For a typical Cross Timbers reservoir, the corrected Walker Model 1 default predicts roughly 40% lower in-lake TP than v0.1.0’s mislabelled default. Users who want to reproduce v0.1.0 results exactly can pass coefficients = "vollenweider" to ok_load().

• TN retention default is now Walker BATHTUB Model 1 (second-order), matching the TP form for consistency. The fixed apparent-settling- velocity form is retained as the TN companion for coefficients = "vollenweider".

Other fixes

• data/ok_reservoirs.rda is now populated. v0.1.0 shipped this file as a 334-byte empty data frame despite documentation referring to 123 lakes. v0.1.1 contains 40 Oklahoma reservoirs across seven EPA Level III ecoregions, compiled from publicly available USACE, BOR, NID, and OWRB sources. Source CSV is in data-raw/ for transparency and reproducibility.

• AWQMS connector removed. The ok_from_awqms() family of functions hardcoded a private database server and credentials and has been removed from the public package. Users with AWQMS access should pull data using DBI directly in their own workflows.

• ok_project_path() removed. The function exported a Windows OneDrive path via Sys.getenv("USERPROFILE") and would fail on every non-Windows CRAN check machine.

• ok_load_multi() now passes ecoregion through to ok_load(). Previously, the argument was silently dropped from multi-tributary workflows.

• Author / copyright cleanup. v0.1.1 is released under the MIT license with Jordon Henderson as the sole copyright holder. v0.1.0 contained contradictory authorship statements across DESCRIPTION, LICENSE, README, and plot captions.

Minor improvements

• ok_tsi() now reports tsi_n (number of components averaged) and emits a message when fewer than three TSI components are available.

• Carlson TSI(Chl-a) intercept uses 9.81 (the value in Carlson 1977), not 9.84 (Walker’s BATHTUB documentation rounding).

• Plot functions now check for ggplot2, dplyr, and tidyr availability at call time (these are now in Suggests, not Imports).

• Documentation for ok_hydraulics() now discusses the volume = mean_depth * surface_area approximation explicitly.

• Documentation for ok_inlake() discusses non-algal turbidity as a caveat for Secchi predictions in central and western Oklahoma reservoirs.

• New test file test-reservoirs.R includes a regression test ensuring ok_reservoirs is never silently empty.
