Examples

# Load example dataset Gaudinski_2001
database <- ISRaD::Gaudinski_2001
# Note that some flx_14c values are NA
is.na(database$flux$flx_14c)
is.na(database$layer$lyr_14c)
# Fill dates
database.x <- ISRaD.extra.fill_dates(database)
# Fill rc values
database.x <- ISRaD.extra.fill_rc(database.x)
# Missing radiocarbon data has now been filled if possible, e.g. column flx_14c in the "flux" table
is.na(database$flux$flx_14c)
