eplot: A lattice-based plot of elements on multiple panels

In soilprofile: A package to consistently represent soil properties along a soil profile

Description

This function is used for plotting depth functions of given elements in one or more soil profile(s)

Usage

eplot(data, element, panel = NULL, groups = NULL, ...)

Arguments

data	An object of class 'profile.data.frame'
element	A string giving the element as in colum name of data
panel	A vector of grouping factor for the conditioning variables (which define the subsets plotted in different panels) to be used in the plot. If NULL it defaults to the column named Profile, and plots elements as defined in 'element' subsetted for different profiles.
groups	An additional subgroup which controls colors of the elements plotted in each panel.
...	Other arguments as in 'xyplot' function in package 'lattice'.

Details

This function plots element in 'element' according to the subsetting provided in 'panel', and 'groups'. It is provided to rapidly obtain a depth function of a given variable, subsetted by profile in case of multiple-profile datasets.

Value

The high-level functions documented here, as well as other high-level Lattice functions, return an object of class 'trellis'. See ?xyplot for more details.

Examples

## plot of organic C depth functions in 5 profiles
eplot(example, 'Corg', col='black', type='b', main='Example',
             xlab='Organic C (percent)', ylab='Depth')

## different colors according to different soil profiles
eplot(example, 'Corg', type='b', main='Example',
             xlab='Organic C (%)', ylab='Depth', groups=example$Profile,
             panel=1, col=palette()[1:4])
## an example to add a legend with trellis (lattice) commands
    trellis.focus("toplevel") ## has coordinate system [0,1] x [0,1]
  panel.text(0.65, 0.63, "Site", cex = 0.8, font = 2, pos=4)
  panel.text(0.65, 0.59, "P1", cex = 0.8, pos=4)
  panel.text(0.65, 0.56, "SG2", cex = 0.8, pos=4, col=palette()[2])
  panel.text(0.65, 0.53, "SG5", cex = 0.8, pos=4, col=palette()[3])
  panel.text(0.65, 0.50, "SG7", cex = 0.8, pos=4, col=palette()[4])
  trellis.unfocus()
