An aircraft with two spotters on board flies randomly allocated line transects. Each school of tuna sighted is counted and its perpendicular distance from the transect measured. The survey was conducted in summer when tuna tend to stay on the surface. </p> <h3>Usage</h3> <pre> tuna </pre> <h3>Format</h3> <p>This data frame contains the following column: </p> <dl> <dt><code>y</code></dt><dd> <p>The perpendicular distance, in miles, from the transect for 64 independent sightings of tuna schools. </p> </dd></dl> <h3>Source</h3> <p>The data were obtained from </p> <p>Chen, S.X. (1996) Empirical likelihood confidence intervals for nonparametric density estimation. <em>Biometrika</em>, <b>83</b>, 329–341. </p> <h3>References</h3> <p>Davison, A.C. and Hinkley, D.V.
