a list with the bivariate kernel density estimates (1st
component the x points of the mesh, 2nd the y points, and 3rd the
matrix of densities).
contours
numeric vector indicating which contours to draw;
passed to contour.
rqFit
object of class rq representing a quantile
regression fit of rate of depth change on mean speed.
main
string; title prefix to include in ouput plot.
xlab, ylab
axis labels.
colramp
function taking an integer n as an argument and
returning n colors.
Details
The dashed line in the plot represents a reference indicating a
one to one relationship between speed and rate of depth change. The
other line represent the quantile regression fit.
