\title{NOx Air Pollution Data}
\description{
A typical medium sized environmental data set with hourly measurements
of \eqn{NOx} pollution content in the ambient air.
}
\usage{data(NOxEmissions, package="robustbase")}
\format{
A data frame with 8088 observations on the following 4 variables.
\describe{
\item{\code{julday}}{day number, a factor with levels \code{373}
\dots \code{730}, typically with 24 hourly measurements.}
\item{\code{LNOx}}{\eqn{\log} of hourly mean of NOx concentration in
ambient air [ppb] next to a highly frequented motorway.}
\item{\code{LNOxEm}}{\eqn{\log} of hourly sum of NOx emission of
cars on this motorway in arbitrary units.}
\item{\code{sqrtWS}}{Square root of wind speed [m/s].}
}
}
\details{
The original data set had more observations, but with missing values.
Here, all cases with missing values were omitted
(\code{\link{na.omit}(.)}), and then only those were retained that
belonged to days with at least 20 (fully) observed hourly
measurements.
