Windrose from the clifro package

Description

Returns a windrose plot using ggplot2 of wind speed and direction. This function is a wrapper of the clifro::windrose() function.

Usage

windrose(
  data,
  speed,
  direction,
  facet_by = NULL,
  n_directions = 12,
  n_speeds = 5,
  speed_cuts = NA,
  col_pal = "GnBu",
  ggtheme = c("grey", "gray", "bw", "linedraw", "light", "minimal", "classic"),
  legend_title = "Wind Speed",
  calm_wind = 0,
  variable_wind = 990,
  n_col = NULL
)

Arguments

data	data.frame The data.frame to calculate from.
speed	numeric A vector containing wind speeds.
direction	numeric A vector containing wind direction.
facet_by	character(1) Facets used to plot the various windroses.
n_directions	integer(1) The number of direction bins to plot (petals on the rose). The number of directions defaults to 12.
n_speeds	numeric(1) The number of equally spaced wind speed bins to plot. This is used if speed_cuts is NA (default 5).
speed_cuts	numeric A vector containing the cut points for the wind speed intervals, or NA (default)
col_pal	character String indicating the name of the RColorBrewer colour palette to be used for plotting.
ggtheme	character(1) String (partially) matching the ggtheme to be used for plotting.
legend_title	character(1) Legend title.
