Create Ternary and Holdridge Plots
Plots ternary diagrams (simplex plots / Gibbs triangles) and
Holdridge life zone plots
'Ternary' is an R package that allows the creation of ternary plots (a.k.a. ternary graphs / simplex plots / Gibbs triangles / de Finetti diagrams) using the familiar functions of the default 'graphics' package.
Usage instructions can be viewed here.
