In astrochron: A Computational Tool for Astrochronology

insolation difference map using Laskar et al. (2004) insolation calculations

Description

Generate map that show difference in insolation between two times using Laskar et al. (2004) insolation calculations. This is a wrapper function to calculate insolation using the palinsol package, following astrochron syntax.

Usage

insoDiff(t1,t2,S0=1365,verbose=T)

Arguments

t1	Time 1, in kyr (negative for future, positive for past; valid from -21000 to 51000)
t2	Time 2, in kyr (negative for future, positive for past; valid from -21000 to 51000)
S0	Solar constant, W/m^2
verbose	Verbose output? (T or F)

Details

This wrapper function generates maps with insolation calculations based on the Laskar et al. (2004) astronomical parameters, using the 'palinsol' package (Crucifix, 2016).
