Oyster_plot_cross_section {shelltrace}

Plot the converted shell cross section

Description

Simple function that returns a plot of the shell cross section after it has been converted to a common X-axis. de Winter, N. J. (2017) <doi:10.5194/gmd-2017-137>

Usage

Oyster_plot_cross_section(cross_section)

Arguments

cross_section

Digitized cross section of the shell with shell top, bottom and growth increments relative to a common X-axis

Details

Plotting of digitized cross section after first modelling step to verify the correct digitization of the shell increments

Value

Opens a new plotting window to plot the shell cross section based on its X- and Y-coordinates

Note

Please cite Geoscientific Model Development paper dealing with the ShellTrace model
