Intro to STAN Homework Part #1
After our Intro to Stan lecture I think it would be valuable to have you go through a similar exercise. Let’s test a second research question.
Research question: Is sea ice extent declining in the Southern Hemisphere over time? Is the same pattern happening in the Antarctic as in the Arctic? Fit a Stan model to find out!
Make sure you follow the steps we used in class.
What do your Stan model results indicate so far?
1. Load and Inspect Data
#place the code here
seaice=read.csv("C:/Users/nickh/Desktop/seaice.csv",stringsAsFactors=F)
colnames(seaice) <- c("year", "extent_north", "extent_south")
head(seaice)## year extent_north extent_south
## 1 1979 12.328 11.700
## 2 1980 12.337 11.230
## 3 1981 12.127 11.435
## 4 1982 12.447 11.640
## 5 1983 12.332 11.389
## 6 1984 11.910 11.4542. Plot the data
#plot data
plot(extent_south ~ year, pch = 20, data = seaice)
3. Run a general linear model using lm()
#write the code
lm1 <- lm(extent_south ~ year, data = seaice)
summary(lm1)##
## Call:
## lm(formula = extent_south ~ year, data = seaice)
##
## Residuals:
## Min 1Q Median 3Q Max
## -1.23372 -0.18142 0.01587 0.18465 0.88814
##
## Coefficients:
## Estimate Std. Error t value Pr(>|t|)
## (Intercept) -14.199551 10.925576 -1.300 0.2018
## year 0.012953 0.005468 2.369 0.0232 *
## ---
## Signif. codes: 0 '***' 0.001 '**' 0.01 '*' 0.05 '.' 0.1 ' ' 1
##
## Residual standard error: 0.3843 on 37 degrees of freedom
## Multiple R-squared: 0.1317, Adjusted R-squared: 0.1082
## F-statistic: 5.611 on 1 and 37 DF, p-value: 0.023184. Index the data, re-run the lm(), extract summary statistics and turn the indexed data into a dataframe to pass into Stan
#write the code here
x <- I(seaice$year - 1978)
y <- seaice$extent_south
N <- length(seaice$year)
lm1 <- lm(y ~ x)
