fluxfinder
The goal of fluxfinder is to allow users to straightforwardly parse
data files generated by infrared gas analyzers used in environmental
sciences research; match data and metadata; compute greenhouse gas fluxes;
and generate QA/QC plots and diagnostics.
We emphasize clear and well-documented code, good documentation, and focused functions that can be easily integrated into conventional or tidyverse-style analytical pipelines.
It is also straightforward to integrate this package's utilities with the more powerful flux-computation capabilities of the gasfluxes package.
Installation
You can install fluxfinder from CRAN...
install.packages("fluxfinder")...or the development version of fluxfinder from GitHub with:
# install.packages("remotes")
remotes::install_github("COMPASS-DOE/fluxfinder", build_vignettes = TRUE)Supported data file types
Currently fluxfinder provides functions to read data from:
- The LI-COR Smart Chamber
- LI-COR 78xx Trace Gas Analyzers, including the LI-7810 and LI-7820
- Older LGR 915 analyzers
- The Picarro G2301
- The EGM-4
- The LI-COR LI-850
