TLdating (version 0.1.3)

script_TL.SAR: Easy script for the SAR protocol

Description

This function provides and estimation of the ED using the SAR protocol. It only requires the name of the files with the TL curves, the relative error on the measurements and the temperature boundaries for the signal integration. Extra parameters can be provided to improve the ED estimation.

Usage

script_TL.SAR(file.name, eval.Tmin, eval.Tmax, k = 1, remove.discs = NULL, file.parameters = list(file.extension = ".binx", folder.in = "./", folder.out = "./"), aligning.parameters = list(peak.Tmin = NULL, peak.Tmax = NULL, no.testdose = FALSE), fitting.parameters = list(fit.method = "LIN", fit.weighted = FALSE, fit.rDoses.min = 0, fit.rDoses.max = NA), plotting.parameters = list(plot.Tmin = 0, plot.Tmax = NA, no.plot = FALSE), rejection.criteria = list(recycling.ratio = 10, recuperation.rate = 10, testdose.error = 10, paleodose.error = 10))

Arguments

file.name
character (required): Name of the file containing the luminescence data.
eval.Tmin
integer (required): Temperature ( °C) of the lower boundary for the signal integration.
eval.Tmax
integer (required): Temperature (°C) of the upper boundary for the signal integration.
k
numeric (with default): Corrective factor for estimating the uncertainties using a poisson distribution.
remove.discs
numeric (with default): list containing the position of the aliquots that shall be removed
file.parameters
list (with default): list containing the input/output parameters. See details.
aligning.parameters
list (with default): list containing the aligning parameters. See details.
fitting.parameters
list (with default): list containing the fitting parameters. See details.
plotting.parameters
list (with default): list containing the plotting parameters. See details.
rejection.criteria
list (with default): list containing the rejection criteria (in %). See details.

Value
