Plot calibrated dates
Plot calibrated radiocarbon dates.
## S3 method for class 'CalDates' plot( x, ind = 1, label = NA, calendar = "BP", type = "standard", xlab = NA, ylab = NA, axis4 = TRUE, HPD = FALSE, credMass = 0.95, customCalCurve = NA, add = FALSE, col = "grey50", col2 = "grey82", cex.axis = 0.75, cex.xylab = 0.75, cex.label = 0.75, ... )
x: CalDates class object containing calibrated radiocarbon dates.ind: Number indicating the index value of the calibrated radiocarbon date to be displayed. Default is 1.label: (optional) Character vector to be shown on the top-right corner of the display window.calendar: Either 'BP' or 'BCAD'. Indicate whether the calibrated date should be displayed in BP or BC/AD. Default is 'BP'.type: Either 'standard' or 'auc'. If set to 'auc', displays both the normalised (dashed line) and unnormalised curves. Default is 'standard'.xlab: (optional) Label for the x axis. If unspecified the default setting will be applied ("Year BP" or "Year BC/AD").ylab: (optional) Label for the y axis. If unspecified the default setting will be applied ("Radiocarbon Age").axis4: Logical value indicating whether an axis of probabilities values should be displayed. Default is TRUE.HPD: Logical value indicating whether intervals of higher posterior density should be displayed. Default is FALSE.credMass: A numerical value indicating the size of the higher posterior density interval. Default is 0.95.customCalCurve: A three column data.frame or matrix that allows you to pass and plot a custom calibration curve if you used one during calibration. You can currently only provide one such custom curve which is used for all dates.add: if set to TRUE the calibrated date is displayed over the existing plot. Default is FALSE.col: The primary fill color for the calibrated date distribution.col2: The secondary colour fill color for the calibrated date distribution, used for regions outside the higher posterior interval. Ignored when HPD=FALSE.cex.axis: The magnification to be used for axis annotation relative to the current setting of cex. Default is adjusted to 0.75.cex.xylab: The magnification to be used for x and y labels relative to the current setting of cex. Default is adjusted to 0.75.cex.label: The magnification to be used for the label on the top right corner defined by the argument label. Default is adjusted to 0.75....: Additional arguments affecting the plot.x <- calibrate(x=c(3402,3490,4042),errors=c(20,20,30)) plot(x) #display the first date plot(x,2) #displays the second date plot(x,3, calendar="BCAD", HPD=TRUE) #display in BC/AD with higher posterior density interval
