In metno/esd: Climate analysis and empirical-statistical downscaling (ESD) package for monthly and daily data

Advanced scatter plots

Description

Various functions that display bi-variate data in different ways. The default presents the number of points falling into pixles of a 2D grid.

Usage

scatter(x, y, type = "heat", verbose = FALSE, ...)

Arguments

x	x-variable
y	y-variable
type	Type of scatter cplot c('heat','sunflower','hexbin'
verbose	TRUE for diagnosing the internals of the function.
breaks	('heat' option) Set the colour scaling.
ignorezero	('heat' option - default = TRUE) Zeros are blank.
log	('heat' option - default = FALSE) Use logarithmic colour scaling.
dig	('heat' option) Resolution in number of decimal points/digits.
fig	('heat' option) Figure region for the colour bar.

Details

The 'heat' type produces a heat map type display whereas 'sunflower' and 'hexbin' present alternative infographics. Scatter also takes arguments similar to plot such as 'xlim', 'ylim', 'main', 'sub', 'xlab', and 'ylab.

Value

Graphics and visualisation only.
