similar to: Ternary plot and filled contour

A rather strange situation here and I've not found the source of the problem. The point is to print a ternary plot matrix of compositional data with ellipses enclosing 95% of the variance in each plot. The ellipses display on the monitor, dev = x11cairo (see attached winters-x11cairo.pdf), but not when sent directly to a file, dev = pdf (see attached winters-pdf.pdf). Here's

I need to plot multiple sets of data, on one Ternary plot (from the VCD package). Since they all need to be formatted differently, I can't just coerce them into one matrix, I need three separate calls. Is there a way to do this?

Hello I have a data base consisting of soil parameters, and tree species densities. The vcd (visualizing categorical data) package includes the ternaryplot function which plots the gravitation center of 3 prameters. I'd like to find a similar function for use with continuous data rather than categorical. Does anyone know of a function suitable for this objective? Thanks Steve

Hi all, I am drawing a ternary graph. Everything is fine with both ternaryplot (package vcd) and triangle.plot (package ade4), but I want to present scales in neither percents nor from 0 to 1 (this is actually the only option I found in both functions). I want the scales to be in a natural scale (from 0 to k, k being the number of objects). Is it at all possible? (Descriptions of both functions

I'm in e-mail contact with a geochemist who maintains a well regarded geochemistry web site. He's drawing diagrams either with a Turbo Pascal program running in a DOS window or with Excel. I'm trying to persuade him that R would be a better choice. Something he's particularly keen on is ternary diagrams. I think he is talking about ternary phase diagrams, and if so, it looks as

Hi, I am trying to create a triangular plot to show the 'composition' of a set of items with three variables (historically the percent sand, silt and clay in soil). So far I have tried the 'soil texture triangle plot' in the package plotrix and the 'ternary or triangular plots' in the package cwhtool (cwhmisc). Both have strengths and weaknesses, but neither has a

Colin, If your propose is to create a ternary plot with points and vectors, I think easier do this with graphics based plots instead of trellis based plots. Although, with little work you can do with trellis too. I gave you a reproducible code to put an arrow in a ternary plot. I use the function locator() to extract coordinates. The code is the following

Has anyone written a script or function to read data from NODC?s World Ocean Database files? (I know there are simple Fortran and C programs to read these files, but the output is not suitable for easy analysis) Thanks, Franz _____________________________________________________ Dr. Franz J.
