Scatter Diagrams

This example was drawn on the base of fig. 13 "Scatter plot of DCAPE versus 0-6 km mean wind" from the article "Examination of Derecho Environments Using Proximity Soundings" by Jeffry S. Evans on the website of Storm Prediction Center, National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration.
"Figure 13 suggests the existence of an inverse relationship between DCAPE and mean wind when considering all derechos. Careful examination of this figure shows that this is the result of the separation into SF, WF, and hybrid categories; the SF cases are found in the upper left part of the figure, the WF cases are found in the lower right part, and the hybrid cases are in between, with some hint that they are more like the WF cases than the SF cases."

"In stratified sampling, the population is partitioned into non-overlapping groups, called strata and a sample is selected by some design within each stratum. ...
The principal reasons for using stratified random sampling rather than simple random sampling include:
1. Stratification may produce a smaller error of estimation than would be produced by a simple random sample of the same size. This result is particularly true if measurements within strata are very homogeneous.
2. The cost per observation in the survey may be reduced by stratification of the population elements into convenient groupings.
3. Estimates of population parameters may be desired for subgroups of the population. These subgroups should then be identified." [onlinecourses.science.psu.edu/ stat506/ node/ 27]
The multiserial scatterplot "Starification diagram example" was created using the ConceptDraw PRO software extended with the Seven Basic Tools of Quality solution from the Quality area of ConceptDraw Solution Park.

This scatter graph example visualize correlation between baby height and age.
"Human height is the distance from the bottom of the feet to the top of the head in a human body, standing erect. It is usually measured in centimetres when using the metric system, and feet and inches when using the imperial system. Human height has varied from under 60 centimetres (2 ft 0 in) to over 260 centimetres (8 ft 6 in). On average, males are taller than females. ...
Growth in stature, determined by its various factors, results from the lengthening of bones via cellular divisions chiefly regulated by somatotropin (human growth hormone (hGH)) secreted by the anterior pituitary gland. ...
The majority of linear growth occurs as growth of cartilage at the epiphysis (ends) of the long bones which gradually ossify to form hard bone. The legs compose approximately half of adult human height, and leg length is a somewhat sexually dimorphic trait. Some of this growth occurs after the growth spurt of the long bones has ceased or slowed. The majority of growth during growth spurts is of the long bones. Additionally, the variation in height between populations and across time is largely due to changes in leg length. The remainder of height consists of the cranium. Height is sexually dimorphic and statistically it is more or less normally distributed, but with heavy tails." [Human height. Wikipedia]
The scatter plot example "Baby height by age" was created using the ConceptDraw PRO diagramming and vector drawing software extended with the Scatter Diagrams solution from the Graphs and Charts area of ConceptDraw Solution Park.
