dpeatdecomposition's Introduction

dpeatdecomposition: R Interface to the Peatland Decomposition Database

Lifecycle: experimental

dpeatdecomposition is an R interface to the Peatland Decomposition Database. The Peatland Decomposition Database (Teickner and Knorr 2024) stores data from published litterbag experiments related to peatlands.

dpeatdecomposition uses functions from the dm and RMariaDB package.

Installation

You can install the development version of dpeatdecomposition like so:

remotes::install_github("henningte/dpeatdecomposition")

You will also need to download the Peatland Decomposition Database and open it in a running MariaDB instance.

Example

library(dpeatdecomposition)

# connect to database
con <-
  RMariaDB::dbConnect(
    drv = RMariaDB::MariaDB(),
    dbname = "dpeatdecomposition",
    default.file = "~/my.cnf"
  )

# get database as dm object
dm_dpeatdecomposition <-
  dpeatdecomposition::dp_get_dm(con, learn_keys = TRUE)

# get information on samples
d <- 
  dm_dpeatdecomposition |>
  dm::pull_tbl(samples) |>
  as.data.frame()

# disconnect
RMariaDB::dbDisconnect(con)

Database schema

Fig. 1: Database schema for the Sphagnum Decomposition Database. Each table is represented as a box. Tables contain unique identifiers for data entities (e.g. datasets, samples, or measurements) — primary keys (underlined) and foreign keys — which are listed in each box. Keys are used to link data entities between tables. These links are shown as curves pointing to the respective links which connect tables.
