Defining different reference period for fit calibration

[njdepsky]

Hi Martin,

Is there a way to define a different sub-period within the overall time series to be used as the reference calibration period for the distribution fitting process? This would be functionality similar to the "calibration_start_year/calibration_end_year" args in climate_indices or "ref.start/ref.end" in SPEI.R.

Thanks!

Hi @njdepsky,

No this is currently not possible.

I could maybe implement this, but not sure why you would want this?
