Ratio of Standard Deviations
Ratio of standard deviations between sim and obs, with treatment of missing values.
rSD(sim, obs, ...) ## Default S3 method: rSD(sim, obs, na.rm=TRUE, ...) ## S3 method for class 'data.frame' rSD(sim, obs, na.rm=TRUE, ...) ## S3 method for class 'matrix' rSD(sim, obs, na.rm=TRUE, ...) ## S3 method for class 'zoo' rSD(sim, obs, na.rm=TRUE, ...)
sim |
numeric, zoo, matrix or data.frame with simulated values |
obs |
numeric, zoo, matrix or data.frame with observed values |
na.rm |
a logical value indicating whether 'NA' should be stripped before the computation proceeds. |

further arguments passed to or from other methods. |
Ratio of standard deviations between sim and obs.
If sim and obs are matrixes, the returned value is a vector, with the ratio of standard deviations between each column of sim and obs.
obs and sim has to have the same length/dimension
The missing values in obs and sim are removed before the computation proceeds, and only those positions with non-missing values in obs and sim are considered in the computation
