Good day:
I am trying to use
readcsvIts("nwr_data_qc.txt",informat=its.format("%Y%m%d%h%M
%Y"),header=TRUE,sep="",skip=0,row.names=NULL,as.is=TRUE,dec=".")
to read in a file (nwr_data_qc.txt) that looks like this:
Time Y M D H Min CO2
2000.18790 2000. 3. 9. 18. 30. 373.60
2000.20156 2000. 3. 14. 18. 30. 373.34
2000.22609 2000. 3. 23. 18. 0. 373.01
and R returns this:
Y M D H Min CO2
<NA> 2000 3 9 18 30 373.60
<NA> 2000 3 14 18 30 373.34
<NA> 2000 3 23 18 0 373.01
I have tried every format option on the help page. How can I read in
my decimal dates (e.g., 2000.18790)?
Note that these data (CO2) are irregularly spaced in time (Time).
Ultimately I would like to fit a trigonometric polynomial (first
harmonic) to these data in order to smooth them and obtain values
between measurements. Any suggestions you can provide on how to do
this would be much appreciated.
Thank you for your help.
