other parameters that are passed
on to windRose
. For windRose
other parameters that are
passed on to drawOpenKey
, lattice:xyplot
and cutData
.windRose
and pollutionRose
also return an object of class ``openair''. The object includes three main
components: call
, the command used to generate the plot; data
,
the data frame of summarised information used to make the
plot; and plot
, the plot itself. If retained, e.g. using
output <- windRose(mydata)
, this output can be used to recover the data, reproduce
or rework the original plot or undertake further analysis.
An openair output can be manipulated using a number of generic operations, including
print
, plot
and summarise
. See openair.generics
for further details.
Summarised proportions can also be extracted directly using the $data
operator, e.g.
object$data
for output <- windRose(mydata)
. This returns a data frame with
three set columns: cond
, conditioning based on type
; wd
, the wind
direction; and calm
, the statistic
for the proportion of data unattributed to
any specific wind direction because it was collected under calm conditions; and then several
(one for each range binned for the plot) columns giving proportions of measurements
associated with each ws
or pollutant
range plotted as a discrete panel.windRose
and pollutionRose
are designed to work with UK Met Office files. Wind directions of 0
degrees are assumed to be calms. The function will assume any data
with wind speed = 0 or wind direction = 0 will be calm.
Note that any mydata
rows that are not classified as calm and
contain NAs
for wd
, ws
or pollutant
(if
set) cannot be assigned to the windRose structure and are removed
before calculating the statistic
or percent contributions.windRose
data are summarised by direction,
typically by 45 or 30 (or 10) degrees and by different wind speed
categories. Typically, wind speeds are represented by different
width "paddles". The plots show the proportion (here represented
as a percentage) of time that the wind is from a certain angle and
wind speed range.
By default windRose
will plot a windRose in using
"paddle" style segments and placing the scale key below the plot.
The argument pollutant
uses the same plotting structure but
substitutes another data series, defined by pollutant
, for
wind speed.
The option statistic = "prop.mean"
provides a measure of the
relative contribution of each bin to the panel mean, and is intended
for use with pollutionRose
.
pollutionRose
is a windRose
wrapper which brings
pollutant
forward in the argument list, and attempts to
sensibly rescale break points based on the pollutant
data
range by by-passing ws.int
.
By default, pollutionRose
will plot a pollution rose of
nox
using "wedge" style segments and placing the scale
key to the right of the plot.drawOpenKey
for fine control of the scale key.
