test_extrapolation: Test differences between observed and extrapolated stocks

Description

Subset those cores that reach the standardization depth and estimates the stock (observed stock), estimate the stock from the linear relation of organic carbon accumulated mass and depth using the 90, 75, 50 and 25% top length of the indicated standardization depth. Compares the observed stock with the estimated stocks by extrapolation.

Usage

test_extrapolation(
  df = NULL,
  depth = 100,
  core = "core",
  mind = "mind_corrected",
  maxd = "maxd_corrected",
  dbd = "dbd",
  oc = "eoc"
)

Value

A data.frame with the observed and extrapolated stocks. A plot with comparisons.

Arguments

df

A data.frame with, at least, columns: core, mind (minimum depth of the sample), maxd (maximum depth of the sample), dbd (dry bulk density), oc (organic carbon %)

depth

Number Standardization soil depth, by default 100 cm.

core

Character Name of the column reporting core ID.

mind

Character Name of the column reporting the minimum depth of each sample.

maxd

Character Name of the column reporting the maximum depth of each sample.

dbd

Character Name of the column reporting dry bulk density.

oc

Character Name of the column reporting organic carbon concentrations.

Examples

bluecarbon_decompact <- decompact(bluecarbon_data)
oc <- estimate_oc(bluecarbon_decompact)
out <- test_extrapolation(oc[[1]])
