Functions for Community Data and Ordinations

A collection of functions useful in (vegetation) community analyses and ordinations, mainly to facilitate plotting and interpretation. The ordination functions work as add-on for functions from vegan-package.

Includes:

• Rank-abundance curves (racurve() and racurves() - functions; the latter for (multiple) samples)
• Species response curves (specresponse() and specresponses() - functions; the latter for multiple species)
• Automatic selection of species for ordination diagrams using limits for cover abundances and/or species fit (ordiselect() - function)
• Stress/scree plots for NMDS (dimcheckMDS() - function)

Furthermore some basic functions are included, such as standard error of the mean sem() and coefficient of variance cv().
