climwin (version 1.2.3)

plotcor: Visualise climate cross correlation or autocorrelation.

Description

Create a colour plot to visualise the results of autowin or crosswin. Displays correlation across all desired climate windows.

Usage

plotcor(cor.output, type, arrow = FALSE)

Arguments

cor.output

Output of autowin or crosswin

type

Should be either "A" for data generated by autowin or "C" for data generated by crosswin.

arrow

TRUE or FALSE. Add arrows to plots to pinpoint best window.

Value

Will generate a colour plot to visualise the correlation data.
