Make Community Proportions
Description
Transforms community pollen count data into proportions, normalising each sample by its total pollen count.
Usage
make_community_proportions(data = NULL)
Arguments
data
|
A data frame with columns ‘dataset_name’, ‘sample_name’, ‘taxon’, ‘age’, and ‘pollen_count’. Must contain a ‘pollen_count’ column with raw pollen counts. |
Details
Computes per-sample totals using ‘get_pollen_sum()’ and normalises counts via ‘transform_to_proportions()’. The result is suitable for passing to ‘interpolate_community_data()’.
Value
A data frame with the same structure as the input, but with ‘pollen_count’ replaced by ‘pollen_prop’ (pollen counts divided by sample-level total). The ‘pollen_count’ and ‘pollen_sum’ columns are dropped.
