Copy a calibration curve

Description

Copy one of the calibration curves into memory.

Usage

ccurve(cc = 1, postbomb = FALSE, cc.dir = NULL, resample = 0, glue = FALSE)

Arguments

cc

Calibration curve for 14C dates: cc=1 for IntCal20 (northern hemisphere terrestrial), cc=2 for Marine20 (marine), cc=3 for SHCal20 (southern hemisphere terrestrial). Alternatively, one can also write, e.g., "IntCal20", "Marine13". One can also make a custom-built calibration curve, e.g. using mix.ccurves(), and load this using cc=4. In this case, it is recommended to place the custom calibration curve in its own directory, using cc.dir (see below).

postbomb

Use postbomb=TRUE to get a postbomb calibration curve (default postbomb=FALSE). For monthly data, type e.g. ccurve("sh1-2_monthly")

cc.dir

Directory of the calibration curves. Defaults to where the package's files are stored (system.file), but can be set to, e.g., cc.dir="ccurves".

resample

The IntCal curves come at a range of 'bin sizes'; every year from 0 to 5 kcal BP, then every 5 yr until 15 kcal BP, then every 10 yr until 25 kcal BP, and every 20 year thereafter. The curves can be resampled to constant bin sizes, e.g. resample=5. Defaults to FALSE.

glue

If a postbomb curve is requested, it can be 'glued' to the pre-bomb curve. This feature is currently disabled - please use glue.ccurves instead

Details

Copy the radiocarbon calibration curve defined by cc into memory.

Value

The calibration curve (invisible).
