Calibration quality
Description
Assesses the model's calibration quality with the help of the pairwise complete modelled as well as observed loads and the following metrics:
-
NSE: Nash-Sutcliffe Efficiency
-
mNSE: Modified Nash-Sutcliffe Efficiency (
j = 1) -
KGE: Modified Kling-Gupta Efficiency
-
RMSE: Root Mean Square Error
-
PBIAS: Percent Bias
-
RSR: Ratio of the RMSE to the standard deviation of the observations
-
RCV: Ratio of the coefficients of variation
-
GMRAE: Geometric Mean Relative Absolute Error
-
MdRAE: Median Relative Absolute Error
In addition, a scatter plot with the observed river loads on the x- and the modelled river loads on the y-axis is displayed and provides a visual impression of the model performance. Other elements of this plot are an identity line (solid) and plus/minus 30% deviation lines (dashed).
Usage
## S4 method for signature 'RPhosFate'
calibrationQuality(x, substance, col)
Arguments
x |
An S4 |
substance |
A character string specifying the substance to calculate. |
col |
A character string specifying the calibration data column with the respective substance river loads. |
Value
A named numeric vector containing the assessed metrics along with the in-channel retention ratio (one minus sum of xxt at catchment outlet(s) divided by sum of xxt_inp).
