Create a wind-rose object, typically for plotting with
plot,windrose-method().
Usage
as.windrose(x, y, dtheta = 15, debug = getOption("oceDebug"))
Value
A windrose object, with data slot containing
Item
Meaning
n
the number of x values
x.mean
the mean of the x values
y.mean
the mean of the y values
theta
the central angle (in degrees) for the class
count
the number of observations in this class
mean
the mean of the observations in this class
fivenum
the fivenum() vector for
observations in this class (the min, the lower hinge, the
median, the upper hinge, and the max)
Arguments
x
The x component of wind speed (or stress) or an object of class
met (see met), in which case the u and
v components of that object are used for the components of wind speed,
and y here is ignored.
y
The y component of wind speed (or stress).
dtheta
The angle increment (in degrees) within which to classify the data.
debug
A flag that turns on debugging. Set to 1 to get a moderate amount
of debugging information, or to 2 to get more.
