This data is provided with the package. ```{r} adm = tp_to_adm(t = CarboCATLite_data$time_myr, h = CarboCATLite_data$height_4_km_offshore_m, L_unit = "m", T_unit = "Myr") ``` The adm can be directly plotted using the standard `plot` command from R. It can be modified using the arguments listed under `?plot.adm` ```{r} plot(adm, lwd_destr = 1, lty_destr = 4, col_destr = "blue", lwd_acc = 1, lty_acc = 1, col_acc = "black") ``` Here the prefixes `lwd`, `lty`, and `col` stand for line width, line type, and color respectively. The suffix `destr` is for destructive intervals, the suffix `acc` for intervals with sediment accumulation. ### Adding axis labels Axis labels can be added using the functions `T_axis_lab` (axis label of time axis) and `L_axis_lab` (length axis label). By default, they use the units associated with the age-depth model object. This behavior can be overwritten using the `label`and `unit` options. For more details, see the help page under `?T_axis_lab` and `L_axis_lab`. As example, we plot only accumulating parts, and add axis labels. ```{r} plot(adm, lty_destr = 0, lwd_acc = 3) T_axis_lab(label = "Elapsed Model Time") L_axis_lab(label = "Stratigraphic Height") ``` ## Multiple age-depth models (class "multiadm") By default, `multiadm` plots median ages in red and the 95 % envelope in blue. See also `?plot.multiadm`. ## Lists in time and stratigraphic domain `admtools` defines S3 classes `timelist` and `stratlist` that are lists with one element that contain time/stratigraphic information. They can be plotted as ordinary lists, see `?plot.timelist` and `?plot.stratlist` for details.
