correlationCoefPlot {GCDkit}R Documentation

Statistics: Correlation coefficient patterns

Description

Produces, for each group a separate, set of plots of correlation coefficient patterns.

Usage

    correlationCoefPlot(elems = NULL)

Arguments

elems

list of desired elements

Details

The utility of correlation coefficient patterns was discussed by Rollinson (1993 and references therein). Basically similarity in correlation patterns between two or more elements means their analogous geochemical behaviour, potentially controlled by the same geochemical process (fractional crystallization, partial melting, weathering, hydrothermal alteration...)

The variables are selected using the function 'selectColumnsLabels'.

Value
