Flowthrough respirometry data with increasing background rate

A simulated dataset for testing and demonstrating flowthrough respirometry analyses and background adjustment when the background respiration rate increases over the course of the experiment. Contains one column of numeric time data ($num.time), one column of specimen outflow oxygen concentrations ($oxy.out.spec), one column of control or "blank" chamber outflow oxygen concentrations ($oxy.out.blank), and one column of inflow oxygen concentrations as recorded from a shared header tank ($oxy.header) supplying both chambers.

Usage

flowthrough_sim.rd

Format

A data frame object consisting of 3740 rows (approx 62 mins of data),and 4 columns: time (col 1), specimen oxygen outflow concentrations (col 2), control/blank chamber oxygen outflow concentrations (col 3), and inflow concentrations recorded from a shared header tank (col 4).

Details

• Dissolved oxygen units: mg/L

• Time units: seconds
