Compendium of R code and data for “Prediction of Peat Properties from Transmission Mid-Infrared Spectra”

This repository contains the data and code for our manuscript:

Teickner, H. & Knorr, K.-H. (2025). “Prediction of peat Properties from
transmission mid-infrared spectra”. (unpublished).

How to cite

Please cite this compendium as:

How to use

Instructions how to set up the Docker containers to reproduce the
computations are available from the Dockerfile. The Dockerfile also
provides instructions to run the
targets workflow to reproduce
all computations and eventually the manuscript and supporting
information.

Sources

Data in folder data/raw_data are derived from different sources. To
use these data and give credit to data authors, please follow the
following information:

  • 📁 d9.rds: This file contains data
    values (porosity and bulk density of organic shales) extracted from
    Fig. 4 in Wang et al. (2015).
  • 📁
    caldat-wittington2024
    : This
    folder contains data values (bulk density, porosity, saturated
    hydraulic conductivity) extracted from Fig. 1 and 3 from Whittington
    and Koiter (2024).
  • 📁 CHNOSZ: This folder contains
    additional data for P$_4$O$_10$ to be included in the ‘OBIGT’ database
    from the R package ‘CHNOSZ’ (Dick 2019). These additional data values
    are derived from
    https://webbook.nist.gov/cgi/cbook.cgi?ID=C16752606&Mask=6F
    (Linstrom 1997).
  • 📁
    dry_thermal_conductivity
    :
    This folder contains corrected versions of the supporting data from
    O’Connor et al. (2020) which I received via email from
    Prof. Cardenas.
  • 📁 pmird: This is a template folder
    in which the folder pmird_prepared_data from the pmird database
    needs to be stored to reproduce the computations. This folder is
    available from https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.17092587.
  • 📁
    specific_heat_capacity
    : This
    folder contains the supporting data from Gnatowski et al. (2022).
