predictCPG {CPGchron}R Documentation

Predict calendar ages at desired depths

Description

Best accessed through the CPGmenu where arguments are filled in automatically. This function will take a set of parameter values created via CPG and draw stochastically consistent chronologies. Note that this function is generally pretty fast, runs will usually take less than a minute.

Usage

predictCPG(PARSFILE, DETSFILE, OUTFILE, ndet, DDEPTHFILE, nddepths, numchron, extract,OUTLIERFILE)

Arguments

PARSFILE A character string detailing the location and name of the parameters file from a run of the CPG model.
DETSFILE A character string detailing the location and name of the determinations file consistent with that expected by the CPG model. See CPGmenu for more details.
OUTFILE A character string detailing the desired location and name of the output chronologies.
ndet The number of determinations
DDEPTHFILE A character string detailing the location and name of the file containing the desired depths at which to draw the chronology.
nddepths The number of desired depths
numchron The number of chronologies desired.
extract The date of extraction of the core. This is used to stop chronologies being drawn for impossible ages in the future. The procedure may be slowed down somewhat if the model deems that these types of ages are probable.
OUTLIERFILE A character string detailing the desired location and name of the outlier summary of the core.

Value

No output produced by the function, but will populate the file designated OUTFILE and OUTLIERFILE.
