Creates a linear storage curve with a given slope and intercept,
viz. \(\text{Volume} = \text{slope} \times \text{Level} + \text{intercept}\).
Usage
linear_storage_curve(intercept, slope)
Arguments
- intercept
a number. Intercept of the linear storage curve.
- slope
a number. Slope of the linear storage curve
Value
A function with signature function(level), whose argument is
assumed to be a numeric vector, that computes volumes from lake levels
according to the prescribed linear relationship.
Details
The handling of units of measurement is left to the user.
