concurrencemap: Maps of concurrence probabilities/expected concurrence cell area

Description

This function produces maps for concurrence probabilities or expected concurrence cell areas.

Usage

concurrencemap(data, coord, which = "kendall", type = "cell", n.grid =
100, col = cm.colors(64), plot = TRUE, plot.border = NULL,
compute.std.err = FALSE, ...)

Arguments

data

A matrix representing the data. Each column corresponds to one location.

coord

A matrix that gives the coordinates of each location. Each row corresponds to one location.

which

A character string specifying which estimator should be used. Should be one of "emp" (empirical), "boot" (bootstrap version) and "kendall" (kendall based).

type

Either "cell" for cell areas or a integer between 1 and the number of locations specifying which site should be used as reference location---see Details.

n.grid

Integer specifying the size of the prediction grid.

col

The colors used to produce the map.

plot

Logical. If TRUE (default), a map is produced; otherwise results are invisibly returned.

plot.border

The name of an R function that can be used to plot the border of the study region. If NULL, no border are plotted.

compute.std.err

Logical. If TRUE, a map of standard errors is also produced. It is currently only available for concurrence probability maps.

Additional options to be passed to the image function.

Value

This function returns invisibly a list with the x and y coordinates and the corresponding values for the estimated concurrence probabilities or expected concurrence cell area.

Examples

Run this code
# NOT RUN {
##require(maps) ## <<-- to plot US borders
data(USHCNTemp)
coord <- as.matrix(metadata[,2:3])

## Subset the station to have a fast example
n.site <- 30
chosen.site <- sample(nrow(coord), n.site)
coord <- coord[chosen.site,]
maxima.summer <- maxima.summer[,chosen.site]

## Define a function to plot the border
border <- function(add = FALSE) maps::map("usa", add = add)

par(mar = rep(0, 4))
## Produce a pairwise concurrence probability map w.r.t. station number 15
concurrencemap(maxima.summer, coord, type = 15, plot.border = border,
 compute.std.err = TRUE)

## Produce the expected concurrence cell area
concurrencemap(maxima.summer, coord, plot.border = border)
# }
