mag.distr: Summarized magnitude distribution

In MetFns: Analysis of Visual Meteor Data

Description

Table and graphical representation of summarized magnitude distribution for a given magnitude dataset, specified meteor shower and time period.

Usage

mag.distr(data,date.start,date.end,shw)

Arguments

data	data frame consisting of visual meteor magnitude data.
date.start	character vector or factor specifying start date, given in "%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S" format (UTC timezone).
date.end	character vector or factor specifying end date, given in "%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S" format (UTC timezone).
shw	character string consisting of three capital letters which represent meteor shower code.

Details

Summarized magnitude distribution is formed by summing magnitude frequencies of all observing time intervals.

Value

Table and plot of summarized magnitude distribution consisting of histogram and boxplot.

The histogram cells are intervals of length 1, with midpoints at magnitudes -6 to +7.
