Publisher review:Shepard_Ternary_Plot - Shepard ternary plot for sand, silt, clay distributions This function plots sand, silt and clay fraction data on a ternary plot that is marked with the Shepard classification scheme labels from his article:Shepard, F.P., 1954, Nomenclature based on sand-silt-clay ratios: Journal Sedimentary Petrology, v. 24, p. 151-158.This function is merely a modification of the Ternplot function available on the Mathworks site authored by Carl Sandrock (20020827).To use the function, type hepard(Sand,Silt,Clay), here the sand, silt and clay fractions are given by column vectors. The fractions can be given either in % (0 to 100), or as a unitless fraction (0 to 1).
For each point, the data are normalized to insure they sum to 100%. If the data contain
