sim.gradient {FossilSim} | R Documentation |
Simulate an environmental gradient
Description
Function returns a vector using the sine wave function
for a given set of intervals.
This vector can be used as a gradient to simulate fossils under an environment-dependent model of fossil recovery using the
function
sim.fossils.environment
.
Usage
sim.gradient(strata, depth = 2, cycles = 2)
Arguments
strata |
Number of stratigraphic intervals. |
depth |
Maximum water depth. |
cycles |
Number of cycles (e.g. transgressions and regressions). |
Value
vector of sampled water depths.
