water


Can Southern California's water supply in future years be
predicted from past data? One factor affecting water availability
is stream runoff.  If runoff could be predicted, engineers, planners
and policy makers could do their jobs more efficiently.
Multiple linear regression models have been used in this regard.
This dataset contains 43 years worth of precipitation measurements
taken at six sites in the Owens Valley ( labeled APMAM, APSAB,
APSLAKE, OPBPC, OPRC, and OPSLAKE), and stream runoff volume
at a site near Bishop, California.


datasets

This package is a companion to the textbook S. Weisberg (2005),
"Applied Linear Regression," 3rd edition, Wiley. It includes all the
data sets discussed in the book (except one), and a few functions that
are tailored to the methods discussed in the book.  As of version 2.0.0,
this package depends on the car package. Many functions formerly
in alr3 have been renamed and now reside in car.
Data files have beeen lightly modified to make some data columns row labels.
