Greetings Does anyone have any suggestions for reducing pdf file size, particularly pdfs containing photos, without sacrificing quality? Thanks for any tips in advance.

Greetings Though I have months in chronological order in my data table, the data were sampled every other month (i.e., February, April, June, August, October, December), every time I try to plot them (on the x-axis) they are plotted in alphabetical order. What am I missing? Cheers Kurt *************************************************************** Kurt Lewis Helf, Ph.D. Ecologist EEO

Greetings I have a bunch of NAs in a column of categorical variables designating the size classes (e.g., smallest to largest: 1,2,3,4) of cave crickets. I'd like to substitute "U" (for unknown) for the NAs. Can anyone give me an idea how to do this? Thanks in advance.

Greetings Using the following command I've been trying to subset a dataframe of counts of an organism to compute the sizes of groups for use as a predictor: Hs.patches <- as.data.frame(with(Hs.long, table(Cave,Year,Month,Region,Plot,))) I am getting the following error message that I do not understand: ERROR: argument is missing, with no default Can anyone shed light on this

Greetings I want to remove numbers from a string of characters that identify sites so that I can merge two data frames. For example, a site in one frame is called "001a Frozen Niagara Entrance" whereas the same site in the other data frame is called "Frozen Niagara Entrance". It seems to me the easiest thing to do would be to remove the numbers from the first data

All Is there a script in R equivalent to the "if then" transforms one can perform in Systat? For example, I want to create a "Treatment" column coded either 1 or 2 for twelve field sites in a large data set. Ideally, I'd be able to tell R to code sites a-f as 1 and sites g-l as 2.

Greetings I'm having difficulty witht the strptime function. I can't seem to figure a way to strip month (name) and year and create separate columns from a column with MM/DD/YYYY formatted dates. Can anyone help? Cheers Kurt *************************************************************** Kurt Lewis Helf, Ph.D. Ecologist EEO Counselor National Park Service Cumberland Piedmont Network

Greetings I am attempting to plot observations of a cave aquatic invertebrate dating from 1901-2004. I can come up with a nice lattice plot of the eight sites from which I have data easily enough. However, I'd like to be able to highlight the 0 observations on the plots, i.e., attempts to find it at the site were unsuccessful. I'd like to be able to highlight these observations

Dear All, The Decision and Policy Analysis (DAPA) program of the International Center for Tropical Agriculture (CIAT), a not-for-profit agriculture, biodiversity and ecosystems research center, supported by the Consultative Group of International Agricultural Research (CGIAR), with headquarters in Cali, Colombia is looking for a visiting researcher to work on various modeling projects, primarily

Greetings I'm attempting to insert missing data on the smallest size class of cave cricket instars into a data frame. The data involve censusing photoplots (plots) of roosting cave crickets in which we discern in four instars or size classes. I need to insert data on size class one into a data frame that already has data on size classes two through four. The data can be merged by their

Is there a way to estimate a nominal response model? To be more specific let's say I want to calibrate: \pi_{v}(\theta_j)=\frac{e^{\xi_{v}+\lambda_{v}\theta_j}}{\sum_{h=1}^m e^{\xi_{h}+\lambda_{h}\theta_j}} Where $\theta_j$ is a the dependent variable and I need to estimate $\xi_{h}$ and $\lambda_{h}$ for $h \in {1...,m}$.
