Arguments

sm	an object created by get_study_meta
study_id	the study identifier (character)
...	additional arguments to customize the API request (see rotl package documentation).

Details

get_study_meta returns a long list of attributes for the studies that are contributing to the synthetic tree. To help with the extraction of relevant information from this list, several helper functions exists:

• get_tree_ids The identifiers of the trees associated with the study

• get_publication The citation information of the publication for the study. The DOI (or URL) for the study is available as an attribute to the returned object (i.e., attr(object, "DOI") ) .

• candidate_for_synth The identifier of the tree(s) from the study used in the synthetic tree. This is a subset of the result of get_tree_ids.

  get_study_year The year of publication of the study.

Value

named-list containing the metadata associated with the study requested
