TERNARY PLOT

Description:

A ternary plot or a triangle plot, is a barycentric plot on three variables which sum to a constant.
It graphically depicts the ratios of the three variables as positions in an equilateral triangle.

  • A ternary plot has 3 columns of data.
  • In a ternary plot, the values of the three variables a, b, and c must sum to some constant, K.
  • The constant is represented as 1.0 or 100%.
  • Every point on a ternary plot represents a different composition of the three components.

Example

0.2 0.5 0.3
0.3 0.1 0.6
0.5 0.5 0
0.6 0.2 0.2
