Tools for separating hydrograph in baseflow and peak flow, and extreme value analyses

Hydrograph-py

Hydrograph-py is a hydrological Python package that provides some tools for:

1. Separation of flow time-series into peak flow and baseflow.
2. Filtering of peak flow events given a minimum event duration.
3. Calculation of peak event volumes.
4. Calculation of maximum annual peak flow and maximum annual peak event volume.
5. Extreme value analysis using GEV fitting and plotting functions.

Installation

Hydrograph-py can be installed via conda:

conda install Hydrograph-py -c WilcoTerink

or via pip:

Using the Hydrograph-py

After installation, the functions from the python package can be imported by:

from Hydrograph.hydrograph import sepBaseflow, filterpeaks, maxFlowVolStats

from Hydrograph.extreme_analysis import exceed, fitGEV, plotPDF, plotCDF, plotGEV
