Hovmoller plots


Description

Hovmoller plots of Raster objects.

Usage

## S4 method for signature 'RasterStackBrick'
hovmoller(object, dirXY=y, FUN=mean, 
digits=2, xlab='Direction', ylab='Time',
par.settings=rasterTheme(), xscale.components=xscale.raster,
add.contour=FALSE, labels=FALSE, region=TRUE, ...)

## S4 method for signature 'SpatRaster'
hovmoller(object, dirXY=y, FUN=mean, 
digits=2, xlab='Direction', ylab='Time',
par.settings=rasterTheme(), xscale.components=xscale.raster,
add.contour=FALSE, labels=FALSE, region=TRUE, ...)

Arguments

object

A RasterStackBrick with a non-empty z slot, or a SpatRaster with a time index.

dirXY

A direction as a function of the coordinates (see xyLayer).

FUN

A function to be applied to the zones calculated with dirXY and zonal.

digits

An integer, number of digits for zonal.

xlab, ylab

Labels of the axis.

par.settings

Customization of lattice. See levelplot and rasterTheme for details.

xscale.components

See xscale.raster.

labels, region

Customization of contourplot when add.contour is TRUE.

add.contour

Logical, if TRUE a contourplot with filled regions is drawn.

...

Additional arguments for the contourplot and levelplot functions.

Details

Extracted from wikipedia: "A Hovmöller diagram is a commonly used way of plotting meteorological data to highlight the role of waves. The axes of a Hovmöller diagram are typically longitude or latitude (abscissa or x-axis) and time (ordinate or y-axis) with the value of some field represented through color or shading." The direction defined by dirXY and the function FUN allows for a variety of diagrams with this method.
