\title{
Pole Positions of New Caledonian Laterites
}
\description{
The \code{polar} data frame has 50 rows and 2 columns.
The data are the pole positions from a paleomagnetic study of New Caledonian
laterites.
}
\usage{
polar
}

This data frame contains the following columns:
\describe{
\item{\code{lat}}{
The latitude (in degrees) of the pole position. Note that all latitudes
are negative as the axis is taken to be in the lower hemisphere.
}
\item{\code{long}}{
