#tidytuesday Arrival of the Cranes to Hornborgasjön in Spring (2014-2024).
Scatterplot of white text and points on a sky-blue background. Shows that the Spring arrival of cranes to Hornborgasjön begins around early-mid March, with the most number arriving around April 1st, and ends around mid-late April. The scatterplot points are in the shape of small white crosses with a slight shadow to give the appearance of a flock of birds.

Frog calling patterns (as recorded by app users) for this week's #tidytuesday

Highly recommend curating data if you haven't already - I thought it would be tricky but it was straightforward! Just follow these steps dslc-io.github.io/tidytuesdayR...

#Tidytuesday on the last day of the week.. I explored the gender composition of Billboard #1 songwriters and artists over time.

Code: jessjep.github.io/blog/posts/t...

#figma #dataviz
Two stacked column charts are shown side by side with titles and legend in between. The left chart shows the changing gender composition of number one songwriting teams over time - around 80% of teams were all-male from the 50s to the 90s, decreasing to under 50% since the 90s. The right chart shows the changing gender composition of artists (who have achieved number one song) over time. Around 75% were all male in the 50s, down to around 50% in the 2020s.

Learned a bit of Gaelic for this week's #tidytuesday. There are many names and variations of names for "mountain", "hill", "peak", "point", etc. I used this site to help me classify them: cuhwc.org.uk/resources/me...

Code: jessjep.github.io/blog/posts/t...

#ggplot2 #dataviz
One chart shows the height distributions of Scottish Munros and Munro Tops by their Gaelic name (Stob, Carn, Beinn, Sgurr and Meall). Stobs are tallest, on average, but have a wide distribution of different heights. In comparison, mealls are the shortest and tend to all be of a similar height. The second chart shows the number of munros/munro tops by each name type. Beinns are most common and are usually munros rather than munro tops. Carns are second most common and are around 50% munros and 50% munro tops.

#TidyTuesday week 22 - Project Gutenberg. A bar plot showing the authors with ebooks in the most number of languages.

Code: jessjep.github.io/blog/posts/t...

#ggplot2 #rstats #projectgutenberg
A bar plot showing the authors on Project Gutenberg who have works in the most number of languages. William Shakespeare is at the top of the plot with works in 14 languages, followed by Jules Verne at around 10. The bars are filled according to the century the author was active in (ranging from 8th century BCE (Homer) to the 19th century, which is the majority of the bars).

It was nice to find some time for #TidyTuesday since starting a new job last month and having far less free time.

As usual I may have overcomplicated things, but I plotted strength vs intelligence by alignment, and made an interactive version: jessjep.github.io/blog/posts/t...
Nine scatter plots of strength vs intelligence arranged in a 3x3 grid of the D&D alignments. Some observations are: - Strength and intelligence appear to correlate more for lawful or chaotic monsters than neutral monsters - Humanoids are mostly true neutral - Dragons can be good or evil, but are rarely neutral - Neutral monsters tend to be smaller

#TidyTuesday Week 16 - 420 Data. In the grand scheme of things, April 20 seems unimportant.

Code: jessjep.github.io/blog/posts/t...

#dataviz #rstats #ggplot2
A line plot showing the change in number of car accident fatalities in the USA from 1992 to 2017. The trend line has a wave pattern where there is an increase during the warmer months of the year (where the line is red) and a decrease during the colder months (where the line transitions to blue). Overall, the line is relatively flat. It increases very gradually until around 2006, where it then decreases to the lowest point in 2011, then gradually increasing again to similar levels as 1992.

#30DayChartChallenge a little bit late for Day 7 - Outliers. All chess GMs are outliers really, but among his compatriots, Magnus Carlsen is truly leagues ahead. Tried out #tidyplots for this one :)
The image shows a boxplot overlaid with a beeswarm of data points in the shape of a violin. Each point represents a FIDE-rated chess player in Norway, placed according to their standard rating (the y axis). Where the points taper off at the top of the plot, there is a notable gap of around 200 rating points between the top point (Magnus Carlsen) and the next highest rated player. The colors of the plot reflect the Norweigan flag: red, navy blue, and white.

#30DayChartChallenge Day 6 - Florence Nightingale. Inspired by a family member's recent trip to the ER. This data is probably better presented as a line chart, but I got to practice using {patchwork} and coord_radial.
The image is titled "It's an Emergency! Please Wait..." and shows 8 circular bar charts, one for each Australian state and territory. The charts show the change in median wait time at emergency departments from 2020 to 2024. In WA and the NT, waiting times have approximately doubled, while in the ACT they have halved. In other states, they have remained relatively stable, with the shortest wait times in NSW and QLD.

#30DayChartChallenge Day 4 - Big or Small? First Nations people in Australia make up a small percentage of the total population. But their level of day-to-day psychological distress is disproportionately large.
A stacked bar chart comparing the proportion of First Nations Australians experiencing high to very high levels of psychological distress to that of the total population. Around a third of the First Nations bar is in maroon/red (high/very high distress) compared to about one-sixth of the All Australians bar.

#30DayChartChallenge Day 3 - Circular. A follow-up to my slope chart. Women have a higher percentage of self-reported mental health problems, but they also more commonly seek help.

#30DayChartChallenge Day 2 - Slope
The graph shows two slopes, one for females (purple) and one for males (green), showing the increase over time in the proportion of Australian young people (aged 14 to 34) self-reporting a long-term mental health condition. The purple slope starts at just over 1% in 2002 and ends at around 7.5% in 2021. The green starts around 1% and ends at around 5% over the same period.

#30DayChartChallenge Day 1 - Fractions
The prevalence of mental disorders in Australia. The image shows two grids of 100 squares, one for females and one for males. Each square represents approximately 1% of the population (rounded estimates), and is coloured according to whether the diagnostic criteria for a mental disorder was met in the 12 months prior to being surveyed. For example, two yellow squares indicate that 2% of the population met the criteria for PTSD. The image suggests that females have a higher prevalence of mental disorders (around 40% compared to around 30%), especially anxiety disorders (around 23% compared to 15%).

#TidyTuesday - Week 13 - Pokemon. Not sure where I was going with this - I tried to get creative! The second image is an attempt at data art. It's the same data ordered by descending HP.

Code: github.com/jessjep/tidy...

#rstats #ggplot2 #dataart #pokemon
A plot titled "Pokemon Colors and Types". Seven rows, each representing a generation of pokemon, form a square. Each row is composed of colored lines (one for each pokemon), which are colored according to the type of pokemon. These lines are grouped by color, from cooler colors on the left (blue, purple, green) to warmer colors on the right (red, orange, pink, yellow). A colourful square made up of seven rows, each showing the colours of a generation of pokemon. The colours blend between each row in a diamond-shaped transition effect.

#TidyTuesday - Week 12 - Amazon Annual Reports. I looked at the frequency of common 3-word phrases (trigrams) over time.

Code: github.com/jessjep/tidy...

#rstats #dataviz #amazon
The image shows a line plot, titled "Term Frequency in Amazon's Annual Reports". It shows the relative term frequency (expressed as a percentage of total number of terms) of the trigrams "stock based compensation" and "foreign exchange rates" over time. Stock based compensation, in dark blue, starts at the top left of the plot (from 0.3% in 2005) and gradually declines to the bottom right (to under 0.1% in 2023), with the biggest decrease from 2015 to 2018. Foreign exchange rates, in yellow, starts at the bottom left (from under 0.05% in 2005) and increases sharply between 2014 and 2015, slightly increasing from there to 2023 (around 0.15%).

#TidyTuesday - Week 11 - Palm Trees. I tried getting out of my comfort zone and creating a dendrogram. It took a lot of Googling and tutorials, but I'm happy with the result!

Code: github.com/jessjep/tidy...

#rstats #ggraph #dataviz
Title: "Palm Trees". Subtitle: "Over 2500 species of palms exist worldwide, categorized into 29 tribes across 5 subfamilies: Arecoideae, Calamoideae, Ceroxyloideae, Coryphoideae, and Nypoideae. In this diagram, the leaves are made up of thousands of lines, each representing a species of palm. Each leaf represents a palm tribe, and each colour a subfamily." There is a circular shaped image over a mint-green background, with palm-shaped leaves branching out from the centre. Half of the leaves are a darker green, representing the Arecoideae subfamily. This is followed by the Calamoideae and Coryphoideae subfamilies, in different shades of green. The Ceroxyloideae and Nypoideae subfamilies make up the smallest portions, in teal and yellow-green, respectively.

#TidyTuesday - Week 10 - Pixar. Fun Dataset!

Code: github.com/jessjep/tidy...

#rstats #ggplot2 #dataviz #pixar
"Pixar Film Rankings" shows a scatte rplot of the PIxar films on a baby blue background. The films are listed vertically on the left, ordered by highest ranked (Toy Story) to lowest (Cars 2). Each film has a horizontal line drawn from its title to its point (circle) on the plot, with longer lines representing higher rated films. The color and size of the circles represent the release date and run time of the films, respectively. These are colored from dark purple, to pink, to white. The Toy Story franchise stands out at the top of the list, while the bottom four films are Lightyear, Elemental, Cars 3, and Cars 2. Luca and Elemental stand out as the films with the longest duration (largest circles).

#TidyTuesday - Week 9 - Long Beach Animal Rescue. I looked at the number of and reasons for owner surrender of their cats and dogs.

Code: github.com/jessjep/tidy...

#rstats #ggplot2 #dataviz
Titled "Reasons for Pet Surrender to Long Beach Animal Shelter". The plot shows two bars representing the number of dogs and cats that were surrendered by their owners. The dog bar is about a third longer than the cat one, with over 1300 dogs surrendered, compared to over 900 cats. The bars are subdivided by colors showing the number according to the reason they were surrendered. The largest portion in both bars is brown, representing 'unknown reasons', followed by light blue for 'owner-related reasons', and pink for 'other pet or pets'. For dogs, red for 'behavioral reasons' is the forth largest portion.

Amended submission for #TidyTuesday week 8.
Titled "Racial Disparities in Reproductive Medicine Research: White vs. Non-White Outcomes". The plot shows point estimates of odds ratios, risk ratios, and hazard ratios, along with confidence intervals, for each estimate from a total of 33 studies. These are represented as dots (point estimate) and a vertical line connecting the lower confidence interval to the upper confidence interval. The estimates and vertical lines are presented in ascending order of the point estimates. A dashed horizontal line shows where y = 1, which indicates that odds/risk/hazards were equal for the compared groups. The majority of the estimates shown are above this line, indicating greater risk for the comparison group. Statistical significance is shown in dark blue (non-significant is light blue), with a small number of dark blue lines towards the left of the plot (lower estimates, greater risk for White reference group), a larger number of light blue lines towards the left-middle of the plot, and an even larger number of darker blue lines curving upwards towards the right of the plot (above 1).

#TidyTuesday - Week 7 - FBI Crime Data API. Some patterns emerge within states in terms of early/late agency adoption of the NIBRS.

code: github.com/jessjep/tidy...

#ggplot2 #dataviz
Titled "Agency Adoption of the National Incident-Based Reporting System (NIBRS)", subtitled "The NIBRS is the USA's national standard for law enforcement crime data reporting. It captures up to 57 data elements for individual crime incidents, allowing for a comprehensive understanding of crime in the country." The image shows a map of mainland USA over a medium-grey background, with scattered points representing the crime agencies across the country. The points are colored by the agencies' adoption date of the NIBRS, from dark blue/black (1991) to light blue/white (2023). Agencies that have not yet adopted the system are colored in pink. Clustered points show Tennessee, Virginia, South Carolina, Iowa, and Michigan to be early adopters of the system. Pink points cluster over New York, Connecticut, Pennsylvania, and Florida.
