In rbacon: Age-Depth Modelling using Bayesian Statistics

Provide a summary of the estimated accumulation rates for any age of a core.

Description

Obtain a summary (95% range, 68% range, median, mean) of the accumulation rates (in years per cm, so actually sedimentation times) as estimated by the MCMC iterations for any age of a core.

Usage

accrate.age.summary(
  age,
  set = get("info"),
  cmyr = FALSE,
  na.rm = FALSE,
  probs = c(0.025, 0.16, 0.84, 0.975, 0.5)
)

Arguments

age	The age for which accumulation rates need to be returned.
set	Detailed information of the current run, stored within this session's memory as variable info.
cmyr	Accumulation rates can be calculated in cm/year or year/cm. By default cmyr=FALSE and accumulation rates are calculated in year per cm.
na.rm	Remove NA entries. These are NOT removed by default, so that always the same amount of iterations is returned.
probs	The probability ranges to be returned. Defaults to the minima and maxima of the 95% and 68% ranges, as well as the median: probs=c(.025, .16, .84, .975, .5).

Value

A summary of the estimated accumulation rate of the chosen depth: minimum of the 95% interval, minimum of the 68% interval, maximum of the 68% interval, maximum of the 95% interval, median (i.e., 50%) and mean.
