ternStab: Plotting the relative contribution of stabilizing effects

Description

ternStab() is a graph function used to represent the relative contributions of the three stabilizing effects ("Dominance", "Asynchrony" and "Averaging") on a ternary plot.

Usage

ternStab(x, ..., point = TRUE, add = FALSE)

Value

No return value, graphical function.

Arguments

x

object of class 'comstab'.

...

other parameters to be passed through to plotting functions.

point

plot the community on the ternary plot (logical, defaults to TRUE)

add

add the community on the current plot window (logical, defaults to FALSE)

Examples

require(Ternary)

# Simulates a custom community time series using 'comTS()':
z <- comTS(nsp = 10, ny = 30, even = 0.6, mvs = 1.5, sync = "0")

# Runs the partitioning of the community coefficient of variation:
x <- partitionR(z)

# Plots the relative contributions
oldpar <- par(no.readonly = TRUE)
par(mar = c(0, 0, 0, 0))
ternStab(x)

# Adds a second community on the ternary plot
z2 <- comTS(nsp = 15, ny = 30, even = .7, mvs = 1.1, sync = "1")
x2 <- partitionR(z2)
ternStab(x2, add = TRUE, col = "red")
