...work with (I have assumed below that ann_bias has no other columns than the biasNNNN columns, which is not the usual case). There are a number of ways to achieve the reshaping of your ann_bias data frame that are less painful than your approach. For example, the base R "stack" function: bias2 <- stack( ann_bias ) names( bias2 ) <- c( "bias", "year ) levels( bias2$year ) <- sub( "bias", "", levels( bias2$year ) ) Or... if you are willing to venture into the tidyverse... library(dplyr) library(tidyr) bias3 <- ( ann_bias %>% g...
