Caniapiscau River Daily Flows
Description
This data set includes the mean daily streamflow for the Caniapiscau
River. The file has been read from the original .csv format using
read.flows. The Caniapiscau River is located in Nunavik, Quebec,
Canada, and flows northward. The headwaters (representing 45 percent of the
total flow) were dammed to create the Caniapiscau Reservoir, which started
filling in 1981. In 1985, the reservoir was diverted to the west into the
La Grande hydroelectric complex.
This flow time series is used as an example of a river with a known
change point to demonstrate the package's screening capabilities.
