The data in this set consists only of those measurements in March, April and May. </p> <h3>Usage</h3> <pre> salinity </pre> <h3>Format</h3> <p>This data frame contains the following columns: </p> <dl> <dt><code>sal</code></dt><dd> <p>The average salinity of the water over two weeks. </p> </dd> <dt><code>lag</code></dt><dd> <p>The average salinity of the water lagged two weeks. Since only spring is used, the value of <code>lag</code> is not always equal to the previous value of <code>sal</code>. </p> </dd> <dt><code>trend</code></dt><dd> <p>A factor indicating in which of the 6 biweekly periods between March and May, the observations were taken. The levels of the factor are from 0 to 5 with 0 being the first two weeks in March. </p> </dd> <dt><code>dis</code></dt><dd> <p>The amount of river discharge during the two weeks for which <code>sal</code> is the average salinity. </p> </dd></dl> <h3>Source</h3> <p>The data were obtained from </p> <p>Ruppert, D. and Carroll, R.J.
