R Documentation

Plot a bunch of timeseries in a vertical stack

Description

Creates a stack of timeseries plots

Usage

plotTimeseriesStack(
  plot.df,
  time.var = "year",
  color.var = "paleoData_TSid",
  invert.var = NA,
  fill.alpha = 0.2,
  line.size = 0.5,
  scale.factor = 1/3,
  scale.height = 0.75,
  lab.buff = 0.02,
  lab.size = 3,
  lab.space = 2,
  color.ramp = NA
)

Arguments

`plot.df`	A tidy data.frame, typically the output of tidyTs()
`time.var`	Which variable to put on the x-axis. Must be in plot.df. Typically "year", "age", or "depth"
`color.var`	Which variable to color the timeseries by. The default ("paleoData_TSid") will give each timeseries it's own color. Common other options include "paleoData_variable", "archiveType", or "paleoData_units", but any variable in plot.df should work.
`invert.var`	Which variable to use to invert the timeseries. This should point to a variable of "positive" and "negative" (searches on "neg"), or a vector of 1s and -1s. (default = NA, which flips nothing)
`fill.alpha`	Transparency of the shading
`line.size`	thickness of the line (default = 0.5)
`scale.factor`	Controls how much the timeseries should overlap, with larger numbers overlapping more. (default = 1/3)
`scale.height`	Controls how large the y-axes will be. 1 is equivalent to end-to-end coverage with no space. (default = 0.75)
`lab.buff`	Fraction of the x axis to space the tick marks away from the axes bars (default = 0.02)
`lab.size`	Font size for the ylabels
`lab.space`	Multiplier on lab.buff for the axis label separation from the y-scale
`color.ramp`	Specify the colors to use in the plot arranged along color.var. You can do this as single color as a character that will be repeated, as a vector of characters, or a function that creates colors given nColors input (default = NA, which becomes RColorBrewer::brewer.pal(nColors,"Dark2"))

Value

A ggplot object of the plot
