Samples of different plant species were collected along a 120 km
transect running through the city of Oslo,
Norway (forty samples each of leaves, needles,roots or
barks of several plant species), and the concentrations of
25 chemical elements for the sample materials are reported.
The factors that influenced the observed element
concentrations in the sample materials were investigated.
This data set was used in Todorov and Filzmoser (2007) for
illustration of the robust statistics for one-way MANOVA implemented in the function
Wilks.test.
