similar to: NA in cca (vegan)

Dear r-Community, Step1: I would like to calculate a NMDS (package vegan, function metaMDS) with species data. Step2: Then I want to plot environmental variables over it, using function envfit. The Problem: One of these environmental variables is cos(EXPOSURE). But for flat releves there is no exposure. The value is missing and I can't call it 0 as 0 stands for east and west. Therefore I

Dear List, I am trying to plot the result of cca using matplot but failed. Pls kindly help and thanks. Elaine The error message was error in xy.coords(x, y, xlabel, ylabel, log = log) : (list) object cannot be coerced to type 'double' code rm(list=ls()) library(vegan) library(MASS) # input richness birdrich

Dear list, I am trying to predict species volume from bioclimatic data, I have various sites and I have a data frame with species volume and the corresponding bioclimatic data for each site. I read on a discussion forum that you can use ordination to predict species abundance (in my case volume) from 'new' climate data for sites where you do not know the abundance. Unfortunately I

Dear List, I tried to do cca based on species data and environmental variables (formula instead of community data). However, there was an error saying row sums must be >0. I searched the previous related messages but found few solutions. Please kindly help and thank you in advance. code This is vegan 1.17-3 Warning message: package 'vegan' was built under R version 2.10.1

Hi, I've just started using R and am having some problems with CCA using vegan. I'm looking at abundance p/m2 (hence decimals) vs environmental variables and have been using http://ecology.msu.montana.edu/labdsv/R/labs/lab12/lab12.html to guide me through. My organism data looks like this: Sample "Species_1" "Species_2" "Species_3" etc Sample_1

Hello I am using Jari Oksanen's CCA routine from the Vegan package on some estuary data, following a technique applied in (Anderson, M.J. & Gribble, N.A., 1998, Partitioning the variation among spatial, temporal and environmental components in a multivariate data set, Australian Journal of Ecology 23, 158-167). Some steps in the process require that the dependent matrix be constrained by

Hi All I am not clear quite how one could use cca from package vegan and the associated predict.cca to predict species abundance from environmental data (or if this is possible in a generalised way). In other words, can one derive a cca object based on known community data and use that to predict e.g. species abundances in a different number of samples based on environmental data? The help

Hello, I am attempting to use the ANOVA.CCA function with the by="margin" option. The process works fine using the by="terms" option and I note in the Vegan manual that Jari suggests that an error may occur if the anova does not have access to the data on the original constraints. This is the error that I get: Error in dimnames(x) <- dn : length of 'dimnames'

Can anyone point me in the right direction of figuring out what downweight() is doing? I am using vegan to perform CCA on diatom assemblage data. I have a lot of rare species, so I want to reduce the influence of rare species in my CCA. I have read that some authors reduce rare species by only including species with an abundance of at least 1% in at least one sample (other authors use 5% as a

Hi All, I am using canonical correspondence analysis to compare a community composition matrix to a matrix of sample spatial relationships and environmental variables. In order to parse out how much variance is explained purely by space (S/E) or the environment (E/S) I am using a conditional (partial) CCA. I want to test significance via Monte Carlo but I can not find a way to do this with a

I am trying to use the cca/rda/capscale functions in vegan to analyse genetic distance data ( provided as a dist object calculated using dist.genpop in package adegenet) with geographic distance partialled out ( provided as a distance object using dist function in veganthis method is attempting to follow the method used by Geffen et al 2004 as suggested by Legendre and . FORTIN (2010). I

Dear all, I realised a correspondence analysis with function cca() of vegan library. Just like in Okansen (2010) in the example of R help: library(vegan) data(varespec) data(varechem) vare.cca<-cca(varespec~ Al + P + K, varechem) With plot.cca() function I represented the species matrix in the next way: plot(vare.cca,display="species") Being similar to: plot((c(-2,2)),(c(-2,2)),

I performed canonical correspondence analysis (cca) with the example data of vegan, but I'm not able to obtain a table like scores() for the constraining variables. I can see them in the summary() mode, but it would be great to have in a separate table. Any suggestion?, thanx Gianandrea require(vegan) data(varespec) data(varechem) vare.cca<-cca(varespec,varechem) scores(vare.cca)

Dear vegan team, Vegan development happens now completely in github. R-Forge repository is no more in sync with github. I tried to commit all github changes to R-Forge, but a week ago I got a conflict in file and I haven't had time to resolve that conflict. You can follow vegan development and vegan discussion also without signing to github. The system seems to be completely open and does not

Dear all, How can I run a constrained correspondence analysis with the following data: 15 animals were measured repeatedly month-wise (over to 2 years) according to ther diet composition (8 food categories). our data.frame looks like this: food 1 2 ... 8 sex season year animal freq 12 8 ... 1 0 summer 2011 1 freq 0 7 ... 0 1 winter 2011 1 ... freq 0 7 ... 0 1 spring 2011 15 We

Hello, I am trying to obtain f-values for response (independent) variables from a CCA performed in vegan package, to see which ones of them have significative influence in my dependent variables (like the manual selection in canoco), but I can't find any function (or package) that do such a thing. The dependents variables are species data, and the independents are ambiental data. Than you.

Hii rstudio members I am learning rstudio, For my manuscript I am trying to plot CCA using species and environmental data. But I am getting error like Error in cca.default(sptrans, envtrans) : all row sums must be >0 in the community data matrix *My code is like * library(vegan) library(ggplot2) library(dplyr) rassspec<-read.csv("C:/Users/hp/Desktop/R_data/rassspec.csv",

Hi, I'm a beginner with R, but I'm getting excellent results with it. Well I've got an capscale object (vegan package) and I want to made a biplot with symbols representing six groups of areas. With the plot.cca function and some par attributes (like 'labels') I was able to substitute the samples names for keyboard symbols ('x','o','#',ect), but it's

Dear r-helpers, I just read in an article by Virtanen et al. (2006) where vegetation-environment relationships are studied by fitting smoothed surfaces on an NMDS ordination using GAMs (Wood 2000). The authors describe, that they used R? as goodness-of-fit statistic, which they compare to the R? of fitted vectors. Calculations were carried out using the package vegan (Oksanen). I know that I can

Hi, I have a couple questions about fitting environmental (land use factors, plant species presence-absence, and soil variables) constraints to my CCA biplot. 1. After successfully plotting species and site scores in my CCA, I have been trying to insert the biplot arrows of the environmental constraints in my data set using the text() function. When I do that, the plot changes completely. Is there
