Algae data

Description

Each row of the data set is a set of 90 measurements at a river in some place in Europe. There are 11 predictors. The response is the logarithm of the abundance of a certain class of algae. Description: The columns are: 1. season, categorical (1,2,3,4 for winter, spring, summer and autumn) 2. river size (categorical) (1,2,3 for small, medium and large) 3. fluid velocity (categorical) (1,2,3 for low, medium and high) 4-11 (numerci): content of nitrogen in the form of nitrates, nitrites and ammonia, and other chemical compounds. Col. 12 ia the response: abundance of a type of algae (type 6 in the complete file). For simplicity we deleted the rows with missing values and took the logarithm of the response.
