Cross-plot
A cross-plot, also called crossplot or cross plot,[1] is a type of plot used in Earth science to describe relationships for two or more variables.[2] Most plots referred to as cross-plots are scatter plots,[1] but combinations of different charts and diagrams can be common (e.g. histograms).[3] The axes of the plot are commonly linear, but may also be logarithmic.[4]
Cross-plots are used to interpret geophysical (e.g., amplitude versus offset analysis), geochemical, and hydrologic data.
