A chord diagram in R

Masumbuko Semba
A chord diagram is a graphical representation of the data in a matrix’s interrelationships. The data is arranged in a radial pattern around a circle, with the relationships between the data points commonly depicted as arcs linking the dots (Wikipedia). Each entity is represented by a fragment on the outer part of the circular layout. Then, arcs are drawn between each entities. The size of the arc is proportional to the importance of the flow.

Time-series analysis aims to analyse and learn the temporal behaviour of datasets over a period. Examples include the investigation of long-term records of temperature , sea-level fluctuations, the effect of the El Niño/Southern Oscillation on tropical rainfall, and surface current influences on distribution of temperature and rainfall. Th e temporal pattern of a sequence of events in a time series data can be either random, clustered, cyclic, or chaotic.

GEBCO bathymetry in R

As an Oceanography, one key parameter that need to get right is the bathymetry. Bathymetry is the science of determining the topography of the seafloor. Bathymetry data is used to generate navigational charts, seafloor profile, biological oceanography, beach erosion, sea-level rise, etc. There prenty of bathymetry data and one of the them is the GEBCO Gridded Bathymetry Data. The General bathymetric Chart of the Oceans (GEBCO) consists of an international group of experts in ocean mapping.

We are living in an era where technological advances are common. According to AgingInPlace (2022), over the years, technology has revolutionized our world and daily lives. Technology plays an important role in society today. Technology’s advancements has given us brand new devices in recent decades, like smartwatches, tablets, and voice assistant devices. These devices have provided quicker ways to communicate through instant messaging apps and social media platforms. It has also made possible to do things like transfer money instantly and make purchases for everything from clothes, food delivery, groceries, furniture, and more.

Interactive web-based Data Visualization and Decision Support Tools

Masumbuko Semba
The gap between scientist and decision makers has existed for decades. Despite the advance of technology in communication, scientists finds difficult to share the information that decision makers can use. Traditional scientific mode of sharing information, which is often depend on peer reviewed articles often fail to plainly communicate results to policy makers and practitioners. Recently, developing tools that support interactive exploration of results have changed the ways scientific evidence findings are communicated in better and easy way.
