Add Tweedie distribution fitting
A paper describes how the Tweedie distribution fitting can be used for drought monitoring using streamflow data: Statistical distributions for monthly aggregations of precipitation and streamflow in drought indicator applications; Svensson, Hannaford, and Prosdocimi, 2017
This is probably best tackled by creating a function in compute.py
named transform_fitted_tweedie()
, along the same lines as the existing transform_fitted_gamma()
and transform_fitted_pearson()
functions. Then these can be used to create spi_tweedie()
in the indices.py
module.
Credit to Curtis Riganti for highlighting the utility of this additional fitting. Thanks!
