oribatid {ade4} | R Documentation |
This data set contains informations about environmental control and spatial structure in ecological communities of Oribatid mites.
data(oribatid)
oribatid
is a list containing the following objects :
: a data frame with 70 rows (sites) and 35 columns (Oribatid species)
: a data frame with 70 rows (sites) and 5 columns (environmental variables)
: a data frame that contains spatial coordinates of the 70 sites
Variables of oribatid$envir
are the following ones :
substrate: a factor with seven levels that describes the nature of the substratum
shrubs: a factor with three levels that describes the absence/presence of shrubs
topo: a factor with two levels that describes the microtopography
density: substratum density (g.L^-1)
water: water content of the substratum (g.L^-1)
