similar to: library vegan - cca - versus CANOCO

We need to keep the discussion on the list. When I run your code, there are several problems. strain.data <- read.xlsx("Dee rhiz.xlsx", sheetName ="strain", header = T, row.names = 1) str(strain.data) # lists 9 columns at the end with all NAs strain.data1 <- (strain.data, sqrt.dist = TRUE) # this is not a valid R line. I get Error: unexpected ',' in

Hello Sir I am getting problem in plotting in CCA . Could you please help me? I wrote the below command but I don't know why it is taking only first 5 env data rather than all 9. > strain.data <- read.xlsx("Dee rhiz.xlsx", sheetName="strain", header = T, row.names = 1) > env.data <- read.xlsx("Dee rhiz.xlsx", sheetName="env", header = T,

Dear all, I am a new member to the list - and to the analysis that I am attempting. I have the following case A group of us have been monitoring (over a period of a few years) a number of paired plots that were flooded and / or burnt. The plots are located in two topographical settings, some were burnt, some were flooded, some were burnt & flooded and some were not affected at all. At

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

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

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

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.

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

Hello all, I'm hoping this is a simple problem. I'm trying to do cca of my data. I have my plant data and environmental data as 2 separate files. I have 3 years of data, stacked vertically, within these files. I want to conduct the cca for each year and am trying to create separate year files using the following: cnts94 <- cnts[1:27,] env94 <- env[1:27,] when I run

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

Dear all, I would like to calculate a cca (package vegan) with species and environmental data. One of these environmental variables is cos(EXPOSURE). The problem: 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. The cca does not run with missing values. What can I do to make vegan cca ignoring these missing values? Thanks a lot,

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

Dear all at the R-project help list. I have run into a problem when it comes to getting values for "total inertia" and "R-squared" for my DCA using "decorana" in the package "vegan". I have tried the "goodness" function, but the reply indicates that it does not work with "decorana" class objects. In Canoco one gets the Total inertia in

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

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'

I think i mentioned this in private communication a while back, but in case anyone else cares: I have a version of canonical correspondence analysis (CCA) coded up in R. I based it on Ter Braak and Prentice (1988) Adv. Ecol. Res. 18:271-317, Ter Braak (1986) Ecol. 67(5):1167-1179, and Ter Braak (1995) Section 5.9 in Jongman, Ter Braak, and van Tongeren "Data Analysis in

Dear R-help, We are conducting a distance-based redundancy analysis using capscale and then testing for statistical significance for six terms in the model for the constrained ordination using anova.cca in the vegan package. The significance test is sequential, i.e., testing for significance of a term only after accounting for all preceding terms. Could someone please provide us with either the

Hi all, I have site data with plant species cover and am looking for trends. I'm kind of new to this, but have done lots of reading and can't find an answer. I tried decorana (I know it's been replaced by ca.) and see a trend, but I'm not sure what it means. Is there a way to get the loadings/eigenvectors of the axes (like in PCA)? Is there a way to do this with rda() too? How
