crn.plot: Plots a Tree-Ring Chronology

Description

This function makes a default plot of a tree-ring chronology from a data.frame of the type produced by chron.

Usage

crn.plot(crn, add.spline=FALSE, nyrs=NULL, f=0.5,...)

Arguments

crn

a data.frame as produced by chron. The data.frame should have the years in rownames(crn), the chronologies in the columns. Optionally, the last column can contain the sample depth

add.spline

a logical flag. Will add a line with a smoothing spline.

nyrs

a number giving the rigidity of the smoothing spline. Defaults to 0.33 times the length of the first chronology if nyrs is NULL.

f

a number between 0 and 1 giving the frequency response or wavelength cutoff. Defaults to 0.5.

...

other arguments passed to plot.

Value

• None. Invoked for side effect (plot).

Details

This makes a simple plot of one or more tree-ring chronologies.

Examples

data(cana157)
crn.plot(cana157)

## Without sample depth
cana157.mod <- data.frame(TTRSTD=cana157[, 1])
rownames(cana157.mod) <- rownames(cana157)
crn.plot(cana157.mod, add.spline=TRUE)

## With multiple chronologies
data(ca533)
ca533.rwi <- detrend(rwl = ca533, method = "ModNegExp")
ca533.crn <- chron(ca533.rwi, prefix = "CAM", prewhiten = TRUE)
crn.plot(ca533.crn, add.spline=TRUE, nyrs=64)
