dilp_processing: Process raw leaf physiognomic data

In dilp: Reconstruct Paleoclimate and Paleoecology with Leaf Physiognomy

Process raw leaf physiognomic data

Description

dilp_processing() will typically only be called internally by dilp(). However, it can be used on its own to generate and view a processed DiLP dataset that includes raw and derived physiognomic values useful for DiLP and other physiognomic analyses. Returns a data frame.

Usage

dilp_processing(specimen_data)

Arguments

specimen_data

A data frame containing specimen level leaf physiognomic data. A good reference for how to put together the data: McAbeeExample

Value

A data frame containing cleaned and processed specimen level leaf physiognomic data. New variables calculated are:

• Leaf area

• Feret diameter

• Feret diameter ratio (FDR)

• Raw blade perimeter corrected (Raw blade perimeter - length of cut perimeter)

• Internal raw blade perimeter corrected (Internal raw blade perimeter - length of cut perimeter)

• Total tooth count

• Total tooth count : internal perimeter (TC:IP)

• Perimeter ratio

• Petiole metric

• Aspect ratio

• Shape factor

• Compactness

• Tooth area

• Tooth area : perimeter (TA:P)

• Tooth area: internal perimeter (TA:IP)

• Tooth area : blade area (TA:BA)

• Average primary tooth area (Avg TA)

• Tooth count : blade area (TC:BA)

• Tooth count : perimeter (TC:P)
