Get the predicted time until half mass loss for a litter decomposition trajectory

Get estimated time to 0.5 (or an alternate threshold) mass loss from a particular fit to a litter decomposition trajectory

Usage

time_to_prop_mass_remaining(x,threshold.mass=0.5)

Arguments

x

a litfit object

threshold.mass

mass loss threshold in proportion, default is 0.5

Value

numeric value that represents time to a specified mass loss percentage

Details

this function finds the time to a specified mass loss percentage
