The maximum error in the model's predicted azimuth given the Pole of rotations uncertainty and distance of the data point to the pole.

Usage

prd_err(dist_PoR, sigma_PoR = 1)

Arguments

dist_PoR

Distance to Euler pole (great circle distance, in degree)

sigma_PoR

uncertainty of the position of the Pole of rotation (in degree).

Value

numeric vector. The maximum error for azimuths prediction (in degree)
