SOS gives the SOS value for the node, used in the interpretation of node-based analysis of species distributions after running Node_analysis. plotSOS plots the values on a map. GND gives the GND values.
SOS(nodiv_result, node)
plotSOS(nodiv_result, node, zlim, ...)
GND(nodiv_result, node = NULL)SOS returns a numerical vector with the SOS values. If nodiv_result has type raster, a raster object of the SOS values is returned by plotSOS.
The result of running Node_analysis
The node label or node number specifying the node to plot. Optional for GND
The values to use for the extremes of the color palette
Further arguments to pass to the plotting function

The first descendant clade (i.e. the first returned by a call to Descendants) is associated with positive SOS values, the second descendant clade is associated with negative values. The plot will be done as a spatial grid or as colored points, depending on the type of the nodiv_result object. If the nodiv_result object has a shape object of type raster, this will be plotted normally in the background - but resizing the window will cause the plots/pixels and the underlying raster object to lose alignment, due to a bug in the raster package.
