gs_size_terms() assigns concise modified Udden-Wentworth-style size terms to numeric grain sizes. The helper accepts phi, millimeter, or micrometer input and uses the same class labels as describe_mean_size_phi().

Usage

gs_size_terms(x, unit = c("phi", "mm", "um"))

Arguments

x

Numeric grain sizes.

unit

Unit of x. Supported values are "phi", "mm", and "um".

Value

A character vector of size terms.

Details

The terms are useful for GRADISTAT-style printout layers, but they are not full GRADISTAT sediment names or texture classifications.
