concareaExampleKola: Concentration Area Plot for Kola data example

In StatDA: Statistical Analysis for Environmental Data

Description

Displays a concentration area plot example for the Kola data. This procedure ist useful for determining if mulitple populations that are spatially dependent are present in a data set. For a more general function see concarea.

Usage

concareaExampleKola(x, y, z, zname = deparse(substitute(z)),
caname = deparse(substitute(z)), borders="bordersKola", logx = FALSE, ifjit = FALSE,
ifrev = FALSE, ngrid = 100, ncp = 0, xlim = NULL, xcoord = "Easting",
ycoord = "Northing", ifbw = FALSE, x.logfinetick = c(2, 5, 10),
y.logfinetick = c(2, 5, 10))

Arguments

x	name of the x-axis spatial coordinate, the eastings
y	name of the y-axis spatial coordinate, the northings
z	name of the variable to be processed and plotted
zname	a title for the x-axes of the qp-plot and concentration area plot.
caname	a title for the image of interpolated data.
borders	either NULL or character string with the name of the list with list elements x and y for x- and y-coordinates of map borders
logx	if it is required to make a logarithmis data transformation for the interpolation
ifrev	if FALSE the empirical function ist plotted from highest value to lowest
ngrid	default value is 100
xlim	the range for the x-axis
xcoord	a title for the x-axis, defaults to "Easting"
ycoord	a title for the y-axis, defaults to "Northing"
ifbw	if the plot is drawn in black and white
x.logfinetick	how fine are the tick marks on log-scale on x-axis
y.logfinetick	how fine are the tick marks on log-scale on y-axis
ifjit	default value is FALSE
ncp	default value is 0

Details

The function assumes that the area is proportional to the count of grid points. To be a reasonable model the data points should be 'evenly' spread over the plane. The interpolated grid size ist computed as (max(x) - min(x))/ngrid, with a default value of 100 for ngrid. Akima's interpolation function is used to obtain a linear interpolation between the spatial data values.

Value

An example concentration area plot for Kola is created.
