Oyster_subincr_av_thickness_X: Formula that calculates average shell thickness through time
Description
Formula that calculates average shell thickness at the moment of
deposition of each shell sub-increment from X- and Y-coordinates of the shell
increments and adds the result to the matrix of increment characteristics.

Matrix of X- and Y-coordinates of all interpolated sub-increments
subincr_matrix
Data frame that contains characteristics of every
sub-increment
Value
subincr_matrix
Revised version of the "incr_matrix" data frame that
contains average shell thickness recalculated for every sub-increment
Details
Shell thickness is calculated as the average difference in Y-values
between the shell sub-increment and the top of the shell (Increment 0)
