Change Bchron radiocarbon calibration curve

Description

Allows the user to switch between calibration curves.

Usage

Bchronchangecalcurve(Bchrondata)

Arguments

Bchrondata A Bchron data object with fields for the the input and output files, the name of the core being used, the details of the calibration curve, and details of the model run required.

Details

The default calibration curve is IntCal04. Bchron uses a specific, yearly-interpolated version of this calibration curve to speed up computation. This function allows users to download other internationally-agreed calibration curves (as .14c files) and convert them into Bchron .bch format. The new .14c files must be put in the Bchron calcurve directory.
