Folding and bending data
In the fun with dendrograms post, a linear dendrogram is gradually bent into a full circle. This transformation isn’t specific to dendrograms and can be applied to any dataset.
About the logo
The globXblog logo is a colourful doughnut that mimics an equaliser, referring to the sonification and visualisation part of the blog. In its core, a stormy icon represents the hydrological part of the blog.
Transforming a distance matrix into a map
The map in the figure below shows the location of 195 hydrologic stations, which can be used to explore the hydrologic regimes of Australian rivers.
Fun with dendrograms
A dendrogram is a way to visualise objects organised in a hierarchy. It looks like a tree where: the leaves represent the objects of the dataset; the branches link similar leaves according to a given criterion.
