Menu L: age-depth conversion

Menu La: convert depths to ages
Enables conversion of sample values given as depths to ages, using the age model characteristics set up in the rest of the menu. The program then works as if the original data were age data in all respects. If values are to be plotted as depths, the age modelling is still relevant for the calculation of accumulation rates and their confidence intervals. Headings for age or depth scales are chosen automatically here, but may be over-ridden in menu I. This option and the addition of a timescale to diagrams plotted by depth (menu Lg) are mutually incompatible: setting one of them on will cause the other to be turned off.

This option toggles between `off' and `on'.

Return to menu L.
