log

boolean of whether to plot values on log scale

nclr

number of colour-levels to use

include.legend

boolean of whether to include legend

round

number of digits to round to in legend

brks

if desired, pre-specified breaks for legend

legend

if desired, a pre-specified legend

location

location of legend

rev

boolean of whether to reverse colour scheme (darker colours for smaller values)

alpha

alpha value of colors

GRAY

boolean: if TRUE, use gray scale instead

palette

palette to choose from RColorBrewer
