Plot Measures of Central Tendency and Spread for a Spectra Object

Description

Compute and plot various measures of central tendency and spread for a Spectra object. Several different measures/spreads are available. These are useful as an overview of where a data set varies the most.

Usage

surveySpectra(
  spectra,
  method = c("sd", "sem", "sem95", "mad", "iqr"),
  by.gr = TRUE,
  ...
)

surveySpectra2(
  spectra,
  method = c("sd", "sem", "sem95", "mad", "iqr"),
  lab.pos = 0.9 * max(spectra$freq),
  ...
)

Arguments

spectra	An object of S3 class Spectra().
method	Character. One of c("sd", "sem", "sem95", "mad", "iqr").
by.gr	Logical, indicating if the analysis is to be done by group or not. Applies to surveySpectra only.
...	Parameters to be passed to the plotting routines. Applies to base graphics only.
lab.pos	Numeric, giving the frequency where the label should be drawn. Applies to surveySpectra2 only.

Details

For surveySpectra the method choice works as follows: sd plots the mean spectrum +/- the standard deviation, sem plots the mean spectrum +/- the standard error of the mean, sem95 plots the mean spectrum +/- the standard error at the 95 percent confidence interval, mad plots the median spectrum +/- the median absolute deviation, and finally, iqr plots the median spectrum + the upper hinge and - the lower hinge.

For surveySpectra2, the spectra are mean centered and plotted. Below that, the relative summary statistic is plotted, offset, but on the same scale.

Value

The returned value depends on the graphics option selected (see GraphicsOptions()).

• base: None. Side effect is a plot.

• ggplot2: The plot is displayed, and a ggplot2 object is returned if the value is assigned. The plot can be modified in the usual ggplot2 manner.

Functions

• surveySpectra(): Spectral survey emphasizing mean or median spectrum, optionally by group.

• surveySpectra2(): Spectral survey emphasizing variation among spectra.

Examples

# This example assumes the graphics output is set to ggplot2 (see ?GraphicsOptions).
library("ggplot2")
data(SrE.IR)
myt <- expression(bolditalic(Serenoa) ~ bolditalic(repens) ~ bold(Extract ~ IR ~ Spectra))

p1 <- surveySpectra(SrE.IR, method = "iqr")
p1 <- p1 + ggtitle(myt)
p1

p2 <- surveySpectra2(SrE.IR, method = "iqr")
p2 <- p2 + ggtitle(myt)
p2
