SO2 data for 32 US cities with respect to 6 explanatory variables
Description
Of concern for public health officials and biologists are models of air
pollution as a function of environmental characteristics. Using a meta-analysis of
government publications Sokal and Rolf (1995) compiled an interesting dataset which
investigates air pollution (measured as annual mean SO_2 concentration per m^3)
as a function of six environmental variables for 32 cities in the United States.
Whenever the data were available they are based on averages of three years 1969, 1970,
and 1971.
Usage
data(so2.us.cities)
Format
The dataset contains 8 variables:
CityUS city.
YAverage annual SO_2 concentration per m^3.
X1Average annual temperature (degrees Celsius).
X2Number of industrial companies with more than 20 employees.
X3Population size (1970 census) in thousands.
X4Average Annual average wind speed.
X5Average Annual precipitation (cm).
X6Average number of days with precipitation.
