Maha,
I suspect that the legend appears, but not within the limits of your plot. In
this case you have an x axis that extends from â year(1980) to â year(2010)
- which is 3652 - 14610, and a y axis from about 18 - 22.
Try the line below, and see if it become clear why your legend is not appearing
at 0.1, 01
plot(0.1,0.1, xlim=c(as.numeric(as.Date('1980-01-01')),
as.numeric(as.Date('2010-01-01'))), ylim = c(18,30), ylab='SST (dec C)',
xlab='Year')
you might find the locator() function helpful here.
cheers
Ben
