Oyster_plot_incr_fill {shelltrace}

Plot the result of interpolation of sub-increments with a coloured area plot

Description

Formula that plots the result of the interpolation of digitized shell growth increments to reconstruct sub-increments to provide a check on the progress of the model. Areas between sub-increments are coloured in direction of growth using the heat colour palette. de Winter, N. J. (2017) <doi:10.5194/gmd-2017-137>

Usage

Oyster_plot_incr_fill(IncG)

Arguments

IncG

Matrix of X- and Y-coordinates of all interpolated sub-increments

Details

Areas between sub-increments are represented by coloured polygons, while digitized increments are plotted using black lines. High numbers of interpolated sub-increments can cause plotting to become slow

Value

No data is exported, but a coloured plot showing interpolated sub-increments is given in a separate window.
