LDA1-LDA2 plot after Butler and Woronow (1986)

Description

LDA1-LDA2 plot after Butler and Woronow (1986) as implemented by Vermeesch (2006).

Usage

TiZrYSr(Ti = WR[, "Ti", drop = FALSE], Zr = WR[, "Zr", drop = FALSE], 
    Y = WR[, "Y", drop = FALSE], Sr = WR[, "Sr", drop = FALSE], 
    pch = labels[, "Symbol"], col = labels[, "Colour"], cex = labels[, "Size"], 
    show.labels = TRUE, short = TRUE, xlim = c(-8, 7), ylim = c(-7, 8), ...)

Arguments

Zr

vector of Zr concentrations (ppm)

Ti

vector of Ti concentrations (ppm)

Y

vector of Y concentrations (ppm)

Sr

vector of Sr concentrations (ppm)

pch

plotting symbol - see ?par for details

col

plotting symbol colour

cex

plotting symbol size

show.labels

logical. If TRUE, labels the polygonal decision fields with text strings

short

use short labels when using the additional argument show.labels=TRUE

xlim

x-axis limits

ylim

y-axis limits

...

additional arguments to the generic points function, may include the logical argument show.labels which labels the fields in the diagram.

Details

This plot comes from the GeoplotR collection available online at https://isoplotr.es.ucl.ac.uk/geoplotr.
