ms.data1: Measurement Variability Test Data

Description Usage Format Source References

Description

A data frame of magnetic susceptibility data used by Stanley (2003) to demonstrate the Thompson-Howarth procedure for estimating analytical variability (Thompson and Howarth, 1973 & 1978). They are used in the rgr package examples for the duplicate analysis ANOVA and Thompson-Howarth plot functions, anova1 and thplot1, respectively. See also Garrett and Grunsky (2003).

Usage

Format

A data frame containing 2 measurements of magnetic susceptibility for each of 16 rock samples in 16 records.
