mauna_loaR Documentation

Temperature and atmospheric CO2 at Mauna Loa, Hawai

Description

Monthly averages of temperatures and CO2 concentrations, maximal and minimal monthly temperatures at Mauna Loa slope observatory from 1955 to 2018.

Usage

mauna_loa

Format

An object of class mts (inherits from ts, matrix) with 768 rows and 4 columns.

Details

Atmospheric CO2 concentration is mole fraction in dry air, micromol/mol, abbreviated as ppm. Temperatures are in degree Celsius.

Examples

class(mauna_loa)
head(mauna_loa)
plot(mauna_loa)

# Using read(), the dataset becomes an annotated dataframe
(ml_en <- read("mauna_loa", package = "data.io"))
class(ml_en)

# Indicating lang = "EN_US" (all uppercase!) also converts temperatures
# into degrees Farenheit
(ml_en_us <- read("mauna_loa", package = "data.io", lang = "EN_US"))
# Each variable is also labelled:
ml_en$avg_co2

# The same in French:
 (ml_fr <- read("mauna_loa", package = "data.io", lang = "fr"))
  ml_fr$avg_co2
