SO4obsR Documentation

Data on SO4 atmospheric deposition throughout the conterminous USA

Description

Data on SO4 atmospheric deposition throughout the conterminous USA with object type sf from sf package.

Usage

data(SO4obs)

Format

A sf object. The projection is in Conus (Continental US) Albers, EPSG:5070. The dataframe has 197 observations of a single variable.

SO4

Total wet deposition amounts of sulfate (SO4), in kilograms per hectare in 1987, at sites of the National Atmospheric Deposition Program/National Trends Network (NADP/NTN).

Source

These data were used in the publication listed below. Data were downloaded from the website

(link to: National Atmospheric Deposition Program). It was subsequently converted to sf using st_as_sf function.

The code that creates the data file from the raw data can be found at system.file("raw data/wetSulfateDep/create_SO4obs.R",package = "ZVHdata")
