Oyster_import_phases {shelltrace}

Function that imports phase data

Description

Function that imports a table (in CSV format) containing the specifics of phases that make up the phase XRF map used in the trace element model. de Winter, N. J. (2017) <doi:10.5194/gmd-2017-137>

Usage

Oyster_import_phases(file_name)

Arguments

file_name

String containing the name of the CSV file to be imported, including its extension

Details

This funcion imports a table containing trace element concentration and RGB colour data. Table needs to be of the same format as the example shown in de Winter, N.J., GMD, in review. The amount of phases represented in the table byrows is unlimited)

Value

phases

Matrix containing colour, density and trace element data of the phases in the XRF phase map

Note

Please cite Geoscientific Model Development paper dealing with the ShellTrace model
