Function to calculate the prior distribution of the parameters used in the drawdown calculations with analytical models.

prior(par, prior.pdf, prior.parameters)

Arguments

par

A numeric vector with the values of the drawdown model parameters

prior.pdf

A character vector with the names of the probability density functions for each parameters. Currently only 'unif' and 'norm' are supported.

prior.parameters

A matrix with the parameters of the probability density functions. If the pdf is 'unif' then the min and max must be specified, whereas in the case of a normal distribution the mean and standard deviation.

Value

A numeric value with the sum of the logarithms of the prior distributions
