cycles_to_k.RdPrecession constant implied by an observed obliquity or precession cycle
Arguments
- period_kyr
Period of the cycle read from the record, in kyr (numeric, > 0; can be a vector of several readings of the same term), i.e. from a tuned record or a known sedimentation rate. Required, no default.
- term
Astronomical term the cycle represents (character):
"k+s3"(obliquity) or one of the precession terms"k+g5","k+g2","k+g4","k+g3"(aliases such as"obl"and"prec"are accepted, seeastro_terms); a term without k (an eccentricity term) gives an error.Default="k+s3".- g
