Dear friends,

I have the following dataframe:

YEAR <- c(1996 , 1997, 1998, 1999, 2000, 2001, 2002, 2003, 2004 )
T_MAR <- c(2.8, 6.5, 5.4,2.4, 4, 4.1, 3, 4.4, 4.5)
T_APR <- c(5.7, 7.8, 7.7, 4.6, 4.7, 6.2,5.7, 5.9, 7)
T_MAY <- c(7, 8.8, 10, 6, 5.5, 7.6, 8.5, 7.3, 10.2)
BUD <- c(87, 98, 93, 85, 89, 91, 87, 92, 92)
BUD_SE <- c(3.6, 2, 2.4, 4, 2.4, 2.4, 4, 2.4, 3)
g1 <- data.frame(YEAR, T_MAR, T_APR, T_MAY, BUD, BUD_SE)

###PLOT
dev.new(width=6.5, height=5)
par (cex=1, family="sans", mar=c(5,5,5,5.5))
plot(T_MAR~YEAR, type="l", pch=19, ann=F, axes=F, xlim=c(1996,2004),
ylim=c(0,12), data=g1)

title(ylab="Temperature (?C)",xlab="Year")
axis(1, at=seq(1996, 2004, 2))
axis(2, at=c(0,3,6,9,12), las=2)
par(new=T)
plot(BUD~YEAR, type="o", ann=F, axes=F, pch=19, ylim=c(60,100),data=g1)
axis(4, las=2)
mtext("Bud Break (Julian Day)", side=4, padj=4)
arrows(g1$YEAR,g1$BUD, g1$YEAR,g1$BUD + g1$BUD_SE, length=0.05, angle=90)
arrows(g1$YEAR,g1$BUD, g1$YEAR,g1$BUD-g1$BUD_SE, length=0.05, angle=90)



However, I'd like to draw a multi-panel graph with budbreak on the top (as
it is), and with the temperatures for March, April, and May on the bottom,
with their respective legends.

I was wondering if you could help me out with this.

Thanks a million for your help.

See

?layout
?split.screen
?par  (the mfrow and mfcol values)

depending exactly on what you want to do and how you want to do it.
Essentially, these all allow you to make separate plots at different
regions of the device.


Cheers,
Bert

I'm trying to recreate a graph similar to the last one found on this link:
https://sites.ualberta.ca/~lkgray/uploads/7/3/6/2/7362679/6c_-_line_plots_with_error_bars.pdf

The difference is that I want budbreak on the top, and the temperatures at
the bottom.

I tried to set par before each graph and include lines, with no avail.

Thanks, Bert.

1. Did you study the functions (esp. ?layout) to which I referred you?

2. Show us your code! -- "to no avail" is meaningless!

Hi, Bert:
Yes, I studied the functions you suggested, but I didn't get to adapt it to
my example whose reproducible code I sent in my first email.

Here it is the code of the functions I studies:

## par
par(mfrow = c(2, 3))
par(cex = 0.6)
par(mar = c(3, 3, 0, 0), oma = c(1, 1, 1, 1))
for (i in 1:6) {
 plot(1, 1, type = "n")
mtext(letters[i], side = 3, line = -1, adj = 0.1, cex = 0.6)}


par(mfrow = c(2, 3))
par(cex = 0.6)
par(mar = c(0, 0, 0, 0), oma = c(4, 4, 0.5, 0.5))
par(tcl = -0.25)
par(mgp = c(2, 0.6, 0))

for (i in 1:6) {
      plot(1, axes = FALSE, type = "n")
      mtext(letters[i], side = 3, line=-1,adj=0.1,cex=0.6, col = "grey40")
  if (i %in% c(4, 5, 6))
    axis(1, col = "grey40", col.axis = "grey20", at = seq(0.6,
                                                          1.2, 0.2))
  if (i %in% c(1, 4))
    axis(2, col = "grey40", col.axis = "grey20", at = seq(0.6,
                                                          1.2, 0.2))
  box(col = "grey60")}

## Layout

m <- rbind(c(1, 1), c(2, 3))
m
layout(m)
layout.show(3)
layout(m)
par(mar = c(3, 3, 0, 0))
for (i in 1:3) plot(1, 1, type = "n")

Thank you,

Andre

Hi

You are quite close. With slight modification of your code:

par(mfrow = c(2, 1))
par(cex = 0.6)
par(mar = c(0, 0, 0, 0), oma = c(4, 4, 0.5, 0.5))
par(tcl = -0.25)
par(mgp = c(2, 0.6, 0))

plot(BUD~YEAR, type="o", ann=F, axes=F, pch=19, ylim=c(60,100),data=g1)
axis(4, las=2)
mtext("Bud Break (Julian Day)", side=4, padj=4)
arrows(g1$YEAR,g1$BUD, g1$YEAR,g1$BUD + g1$BUD_SE, length=0.05, angle=90)
arrows(g1$YEAR,g1$BUD, g1$YEAR,g1$BUD-g1$BUD_SE, length=0.05, angle=90)

plot(T_MAR~YEAR, type="l", pch=19, ann=F, axes=F, xlim=c(1996,2004), ylim=c(0,12), data=g1)

title(ylab="Temperature (?C)",xlab="Year")
axis(1, at=seq(1996, 2004, 2))
axis(2, at=c(0,3,6,9,12), las=2)

I am quite close to what you probably expect. You need modify axes and their annotation, which is left for your training.

Cheers
Petr

Dear all,

I found the last example of this link (
https://sites.ualberta.ca/~lkgray/uploads/7/3/6/2/7362679/6c_-_line_plots_with_error_bars.pdf)
very similar to the one I need to make for my paper, and I think I got what
I wanted by applying some of the suggestions of this mail list.

Here it is the code I devised (maybe there will be further improvements
from the list):


YEAR <- c(1996 , 1997, 1998, 1999, 2000, 2001, 2002, 2003, 2004 )
T_MAR <- c(2.8, 6.5, 5.4,2.4, 4, 4.1, 3, 4.4, 4.5)
T_APR <- c(5.7, 7.8, 7.7, 4.6, 4.7, 6.2,5.7, 5.9, 7)
T_MAY <- c(7, 8.8, 10, 6, 5.5, 7.6, 8.5, 7.3, 10.2)
BUD <- c(87, 98, 93, 85, 89, 91, 87, 92, 92)
BUD_SE <- c(3.6, 2, 2.4, 4, 2.4, 2.4, 4, 2.4, 3)
g1 <- data.frame(YEAR, T_MAR, T_APR, T_MAY, BUD, BUD_SE)

par(mar=c(5,5,5,5))
plot(YEAR,T_MAR,pch=0,type="b",col="green",yaxt="n",ylim=c(-15,12),ylab="")
lines(T_MAR~YEAR, type="o", pch=19, col="green")
lines(T_APR~YEAR, type="o", pch=19, col="red")
lines(T_MAY~YEAR, type="o", pch=19, col="blue")
axis(side=2, at=c(0,6,12))
mtext("Temperature (?C)", side = 2, line=2.5, at=6)
legend(1999,14, bty="n",
       lty = c(1,1,1),
       lwd = c(2,2,2),
       pch = c(19,19,19),
       col = c("green","red","blue"), legend = c("March","April","May"))

par(new=TRUE)

plot(YEAR,BUD, pch=1,type="b",col="blue",yaxt="n",ylim=c(105,50), ylab="")
arrows(g1$YEAR,g1$BUD, g1$YEAR,g1$BUD + g1$BUD_SE, length=0.05, angle=90)
arrows(g1$YEAR,g1$BUD, g1$YEAR,g1$BUD-g1$BUD_SE, length=0.05, angle=90)
axis(side=4, at=c(100,90,80), labels=c("80","90","100"),las=1)
mtext("Bud Break (Julian Day)", side = 4, line=2.5, at=90, padj=0)
abline(h=78)


Thanks for the insight and help as to the functions I needed to take a look
at.

Andre

Hi, Petr,

Indeed, your code is much better than the one I presented. I made small
editings.

par(mfrow = c(2, 1))
par(cex = 0.6)
par(mar = c(0, 0, 0, 0), oma = c(7, 7, 0.5, 5))
par(tcl = -0.25)
par(mgp = c(2, 0.6, 0))

plot(BUD~YEAR, type="o", ann=F, axes=F, pch=19, ylim=c(60,100),data=g1)
axis(2, las=2)
mtext("Bud Break (Julian Day)", side=2, padj=-3)
arrows(g1$YEAR,g1$BUD, g1$YEAR,g1$BUD + g1$BUD_SE, length=0.05, angle=90)
arrows(g1$YEAR,g1$BUD, g1$YEAR,g1$BUD-g1$BUD_SE, length=0.05, angle=90)

plot(T_MAR~YEAR, type="n", pch=19, ann=F, axes=F, xlim=c(1996,2004),
ylim=c(0,12), data=g1)
lines(T_MAR~YEAR, type="o", pch=0, lty=2)
lines(T_APR~YEAR, type="o", pch=8, lty=3)
lines(T_MAY~YEAR, type="o", pch=2, lty=4)

axis(1, at=seq(1996, 2004, 2))
axis(2, at=c(0,3,6,9,12), las=2)
mtext("Year", side=1, padj=4)
mtext("Temperature (?C)", side=2, padj=-3)

legend(1999,10, bty="n",
       lty = c(2,3,4),
       lwd = c(2,2,2),
       pch = c(0,8,2),
       legend = c("March","April","May"))

Thank you very much,

Andre
