[[INTRODUCTION]]
Ah, the sweet aroma of academia, mixed with a hint of jet fuel and a whiff of statistical wizardry. In this paper, we embark on a scholarly journey to uncover the mysterious dance between air pollution in Clarksville, Tennessee, and the jet fuel consumption in the picturesque Saint Vincent/Grenadines. It's a tale of two cities, worlds apart, yet connected by the invisible threads of atmospheric chemistry and statistical correlation. Speaking of threads, did you hear about the statistician who drowned in a river with an average depth of six inches? The water was waist deep, statistically speaking.
Now, let's clear the air. Air pollution is not just a load of hot air—well, it is, but it's also a serious global issue impacting public health and the environment. But don't worry, we're here to inject some levity into the topic, like injecting humor into a scientific paper, much to the delight of peer reviewers. Who doesn't love a good dad joke in the midst of scholarly exploration? Just like a good control variable, a dad joke keeps things constant.
The unexpected connection between air pollution in Clarksville, Tennessee, and jet fuel usage in Saint Vincent/Grenadines may raise some eyebrows, much like the perplexed look on statisticians' faces when dealing with outliers. Yet, as researchers, it's our duty to unravel the mysteries lurking beneath the seemingly unrelated variables. It's like being detective scientists, searching for clues amidst the data, hoping for a eureka moment more exhilarating than a beautifully significant p-value.
Our expedition into this peculiar correlation combined data from diverse sources, from the Environmental Protection Agency to the Energy Information Administration. It was like mixing chemicals in a lab, except instead of explosive reactions, we got statistical correlations that raised our eyebrows higher than a bad haircut. Yes, these correlations were so strong, they would make even the hardiest statistician blush. Just like how basketball players and mathematicians have a lot in common—they both love to make and shoot hoops.
As we delve further into this intriguing relationship, we aim not only to shed light on the global impact of air pollutants but also to bring a breath of fresh air into the world of scientific inquiry. Because really, what's the point of statistical analysis if you can't crack a good pun or two along the way?

[[LITERATURE REVIEW]]
The literature on air pollution and its various sources is as dense as a foggy morning in San Francisco. Smith et al. (2015) documented the adverse effects of air pollution on public health, highlighting the need for comprehensive strategies to mitigate its impacts. Meanwhile, Doe and Jones (2018) examined the environmental consequences of industrial emissions, emphasizing the urgency of addressing pollution at its roots. These studies, much like a bad smell, linger in the air, reminding us of the serious implications of atmospheric contamination.
Now, let's take a look at some sources that may not have made it into the academic journals, but still provide some valuable insights, much like finding a crispy dollar bill in an old coat pocket. In "The Air We Breathe: A Journey into the World of Atmospheric Chemistry," Lorem and Ipsum (2019) take readers on a whirlwind tour through the complex interactions between various air pollutants, painting a vivid picture of the invisible dance happening above our heads.
On a more fictional note, "Cloudy with a Chance of Pollution" by A. Novel (2000) offers a whimsical take on a town where air pollution takes on a life of its own, raining down on the unsuspecting citizens like a less-than-pleasant surprise. This charming picture book, much like our research, shows that even the most unlikely pairings can lead to unexpected outcomes.
And who could forget the classic cartoon "Captain Planet and the Planeteers," where a group of environmentally conscious teenagers join forces with a blue-skinned superhero to battle eco-villains? Their adventures, although fictional, mirror our own quest to uncover the interconnectedness of atmospheric phenomena while also reminding us that with great statistical power comes great responsibility.
In "The Magic School Bus: Air-Raising Adventures," the beloved Ms. Frizzle takes her students on a journey through the atmosphere, encountering air pollutants and jet streams along the way. While this may not be the most rigorous scientific material, it certainly sparks the imagination and highlights the importance of engaging young minds in the wonders of environmental science.
So, as we navigate through the literature, it's essential to remember that even in the realm of serious research, there's always room for a good laugh or a clever pun. After all, who said statistical analysis couldn't be fun? And if all else fails, we can always turn to our reliable arsenal of dad jokes to keep us soaring through this academic odyssey.

"Up in the Air: Exploring the Interplay between Air Pollution in Clarksville, Tennessee, and Jet Fuel Usage in Saint Vincent/Grenadines"
[[ABSTRACT]]
Air pollution and its impacts on public health and the environment are areas of significant concern, but we're here to lighten the mood with some not-so-smoggy findings. In this study, we set out to investigate the potential connection between air pollution levels in Clarksville, Tennessee, and the consumption of jet fuel in the tropical paradise of Saint Vincent/Grenadines. It's not your everyday pair, but we're here to prove that even distant duos can have a surprising link.
Our research utilized data from the Environmental Protection Agency and the Energy Information Administration, proving that while statistics may seem daunting, they can also be full of hot air. Our analysis revealed a correlation coefficient of 0.8689499 and a p-value of less than 0.01 for the years 1998 to 2012. Yes, those numbers are so strong, they might just take off into the wild blue yonder. And trust us, this correlation is no jet fuel.
Further investigation into the dynamics of this relationship may shed light on the global impact of air pollutants, and if we're lucky, it might also help us craft some sky-high puns. So, fasten your seatbelts, and get ready for a turbulence-free ride through the unexpected interconnection of seemingly unrelated phenomena.
[[LITERATURE REVIEW]]
The literature on air pollution and its various sources is as dense as a foggy morning in San Francisco. Smith et al. (2015) documented the adverse effects of air pollution on public health, highlighting the need for comprehensive strategies to mitigate its impacts. Meanwhile, Doe and Jones (2018) examined the environmental consequences of industrial emissions, emphasizing the urgency of addressing pollution at its roots. These studies, much like a bad smell, linger in the air, reminding us of the serious implications of atmospheric contamination.
Now, let's take a look at some sources that may not have made it into the academic journals, but still provide some valuable insights, much like finding a crispy dollar bill in an old coat pocket. In "The Air We Breathe: A Journey into the World of Atmospheric Chemistry," Lorem and Ipsum (2019) take readers on a whirlwind tour through the complex interactions between various air pollutants, painting a vivid picture of the invisible dance happening above our heads.
On a more fictional note, "Cloudy with a Chance of Pollution" by A. Novel (2000) offers a whimsical take on a town where air pollution takes on a life of its own, raining down on the unsuspecting citizens like a less-than-pleasant surprise. This charming picture book, much like our research, shows that even the most unlikely pairings can lead to unexpected outcomes.
And who could forget the classic cartoon "Captain Planet and the Planeteers," where a group of environmentally conscious teenagers join forces with a blue-skinned superhero to battle eco-villains? Their adventures, although fictional, mirror our own quest to uncover the interconnectedness of atmospheric phenomena while also reminding us that with great statistical power comes great responsibility.
In "The Magic School Bus: Air-Raising Adventures," the beloved Ms. Frizzle takes her students on a journey through the atmosphere, encountering air pollutants and jet streams along the way. While this may not be the most rigorous scientific material, it certainly sparks the imagination and highlights the importance of engaging young minds in the wonders of environmental science.
So, as we navigate through the literature, it's essential to remember that even in the realm of serious research, there's always room for a good laugh or a clever pun. After all, who said statistical analysis couldn't be fun? And if all else fails, we can always turn to our reliable arsenal of dad jokes to keep us soaring through this academic odyssey.

Ah, the sweet aroma of academia, mixed with a hint of jet fuel and a whiff of statistical wizardry. In this paper, we embark on a scholarly journey to uncover the mysterious dance between air pollution in Clarksville, Tennessee, and the jet fuel consumption in the picturesque Saint Vincent/Grenadines. It's a tale of two cities, worlds apart, yet connected by the invisible threads of atmospheric chemistry and statistical correlation. Speaking of threads, did you hear about the statistician who drowned in a river with an average depth of six inches? The water was waist deep, statistically speaking.
Now, let's clear the air. Air pollution is not just a load of hot air—well, it is, but it's also a serious global issue impacting public health and the environment. But don't worry, we're here to inject some levity into the topic, like injecting humor into a scientific paper, much to the delight of peer reviewers. Who doesn't love a good dad joke in the midst of scholarly exploration? Just like a good control variable, a dad joke keeps things constant.
The unexpected connection between air pollution in Clarksville, Tennessee, and jet fuel usage in Saint Vincent/Grenadines may raise some eyebrows, much like the perplexed look on statisticians' faces when dealing with outliers. Yet, as researchers, it's our duty to unravel the mysteries lurking beneath the seemingly unrelated variables. It's like being detective scientists, searching for clues amidst the data, hoping for a eureka moment more exhilarating than a beautifully significant p-value.
Our expedition into this peculiar correlation combined data from diverse sources, from the Environmental Protection Agency to the Energy Information Administration. It was like mixing chemicals in a lab, except instead of explosive reactions, we got statistical correlations that raised our eyebrows higher than a bad haircut. Yes, these correlations were so strong, they would make even the hardiest statistician blush. Just like how basketball players and mathematicians have a lot in common—they both love to make and shoot hoops.
As we delve further into this intriguing relationship, we aim not only to shed light on the global impact of air pollutants but also to bring a breath of fresh air into the world of scientific inquiry. Because really, what's the point of statistical analysis if you can't crack a good pun or two along the way? And we fully intend to do just that—so fasten your seatbelts and get ready for a ride through the skies of research and the unexpected connections that await us.

Correlation is a measure of how much the variables move together. If it is 0.99, when one goes up the other goes up. If it is 0.02, the connection is very weak or non-existent. If it is -0.99, then when one goes up the other goes down. If it is 1.00, you probably messed up your correlation function.
r2 = 0.7550739 (Coefficient of determination)
This means 75.5% of the change in the one variable (i.e., Jet fuel used in Saint Vincent/Grenadines) is predictable based on the change in the other (i.e., Air pollution in Clarksville, Tennessee) over the 15 years from 1998 through 2012.
p < 0.01, which is statistically significant(Null hypothesis significance test)
The p-value is 2.6E-5. 0.0000261439135669682330000000
The p-value is a measure of how probable it is that we would randomly find a result this extreme. More specifically the p-value is a measure of how probable it is that we would randomly find a result this extreme if we had only tested one pair of variables one time.
But I am a p-villain. I absolutely did not test only one pair of variables one time. I correlated hundreds of millions of pairs of variables. I threw boatloads of data into an industrial-sized blender to find this correlation.
Who is going to stop me? p-value reporting doesn't require me to report how many calculations I had to go through in order to find a low p-value!
On average, you will find a correaltion as strong as 0.87 in 0.0026% of random cases. Said differently, if you correlated 38,250 random variables You don't actually need 38 thousand variables to find a correlation like this one. You can also correlate variables that are not independent. I do this a lot.
p-value calculations are useful for understanding the probability of a result happening by chance. They are most useful when used to highlight the risk of a fluke outcome. For example, if you calculate a p-value of 0.30, the risk that the result is a fluke is high. It is good to know that! But there are lots of ways to get a p-value of less than 0.01, as evidenced by this project.
Just to be clear: I'm being completely transparent about the calculations. There is no math trickery. This is just how statistics shakes out when you calculate hundreds of millions of random correlations.
with the same 14 degrees of freedom, Degrees of freedom is a measure of how many free components we are testing. In this case it is 14 because we have two variables measured over a period of 15 years. It's just the number of years minus ( the number of variables minus one ), which in this case simplifies to the number of years minus one.
you would randomly expect to find a correlation as strong as this one.
[ 0.64, 0.96 ] 95% correlation confidence interval (using the Fisher z-transformation)
The confidence interval is an estimate the range of the value of the correlation coefficient, using the correlation itself as an input. The values are meant to be the low and high end of the correlation coefficient with 95% confidence.
This one is a bit more complciated than the other calculations, but I include it because many people have been pushing for confidence intervals instead of p-value calculations (for example: NEJM. However, if you are dredging data, you can reliably find yourself in the 5%. That's my goal!
All values for the years included above: If I were being very sneaky, I could trim years from the beginning or end of the datasets to increase the correlation on some pairs of variables. I don't do that because there are already plenty of correlations in my database without monkeying with the years.
Still, sometimes one of the variables has more years of data available than the other. This page only shows the overlapping years. To see all the years, click on "See what else correlates with..." link above.

Why this works
- Data dredging: I have 25,237 variables in my database. I compare all these variables against each other to find ones that randomly match up. That's 636,906,169 correlation calculations! This is called “data dredging.” Instead of starting with a hypothesis and testing it, I instead abused the data to see what correlations shake out. It’s a dangerous way to go about analysis, because any sufficiently large dataset will yield strong correlations completely at random.
- Lack of causal connection: There is probably
Because these pages are automatically generated, it's possible that the two variables you are viewing are in fact causually related. I take steps to prevent the obvious ones from showing on the site (I don't let data about the weather in one city correlate with the weather in a neighboring city, for example), but sometimes they still pop up. If they are related, cool! You found a loophole.
no direct connection between these variables, despite what the AI says above. This is exacerbated by the fact that I used "Years" as the base variable. Lots of things happen in a year that are not related to each other! Most studies would use something like "one person" in stead of "one year" to be the "thing" studied. - Observations not independent: For many variables, sequential years are not independent of each other. If a population of people is continuously doing something every day, there is no reason to think they would suddenly change how they are doing that thing on January 1. A simple
Personally I don't find any p-value calculation to be 'simple,' but you know what I mean.
p-value calculation does not take this into account, so mathematically it appears less probable than it really is.

For the record, I am just one person. Tyler Vigen, he/him/his. I do have degrees, but they should not go after my name unless you want to annoy my wife. If that is your goal, then go ahead and cite me as "Tyler Vigen, A.A. A.A.S. B.A. J.D." Otherwise it is just "Tyler Vigen."
When spoken, my last name is pronounced "vegan," like I don't eat meat.

Download images for these variables:
- High resolution line chart
The image linked here is a Scalable Vector Graphic (SVG). It is the highest resolution that is possible to achieve. It scales up beyond the size of the observable universe without pixelating. You do not need to email me asking if I have a higher resolution image. I do not. The physical limitations of our universe prevent me from providing you with an image that is any higher resolution than this one.
If you insert it into a PowerPoint presentation (a tool well-known for managing things that are the scale of the universe), you can right-click > "Ungroup" or "Create Shape" and then edit the lines and text directly. You can also change the colors this way.
Alternatively you can use a tool like Inkscape. - High resolution line chart, optimized for mobile
