estuaries

Data from an observational study of whether there is a different in microinvertebrate
communities between estuaries that have been heavily modified by human activity and those
that have not, across seven estuaries along the coast of New South Wales, Australia (Clark et al. 2015).

datasets

Functions and data supporting the Eco-Stats text (Warton, 2022, Springer), and solutions to exercises. Functions include tools for using simulation envelopes in diagnostic plots, and a function for diagnostic plots of multivariate linear models. Datasets mentioned in the package are included here (where not available elsewhere) and there is a vignette for each chapter of the text with solutions to exercises.

<dd>Whether the sample was taken from Inner (upstream) or Outer (downstream) zone of the estuary.</dd><dt>Estuary</dt>
<dd>A factor with seven levels identifying which estuary the sample was taken from.</dd><dt>Total</dt>
<dd>Total abundance of all invertebrates in the sample</dd>
 
<dt>Richness</dt>
<dd>Richness of taxa in the sample -- the number of responses (of those in columns 8-94) taking a non-zero value</dd>
