An assignment is a comparison, for a given organism, of the predicted
isotopic source value at its location of origin and the predicted isotopic
source value at each location of the isoscape
. The difference between
these two values constitute the statistic of the assignment test. Under the
null hypothesis (the organism is at a location with the same isotopic value
than its original location), the test statistics follows a normal
distribution with mean zero and a certain variance that stems from both the
isoscape model fits and the calibration fit. The function
isofind
computes the map of p-value for such an assignment test
(i.e. the p-values in all locations of the isoscape) for all samples in the
dataframe data
. The function also performs a single assignment for the
entire group by combining the p-value maps of all samples using the Fisher's
method (Fisher 1925). Significant p-values are strong evidence that the
sample do NOT come from the candidate location (and not the opposite!). For
statistical details about this procedure as well as a discussion of which
uncertainties are captured and which are not, please refer to Courtiol et al.
2019.
Details on parameters:
neglect_covPredCalib: as long as the calibration method used in
calibfit
is "wild", a covariance is expected between the
uncertainty of predictions from the isoscape mean fit and the uncertainty in
predictions from the calibration fit. This is because both the isoscape and
the calibration use in part the same data. By default this term is omitted
(i.e. the value for the argument neglect_covPredCalib
is TRUE
)
since in practice it seems to affect the results only negligibly in our
trials and the computation of this term can be quite computer intensive. We
nonetheless recommend to set neglect_covPredCalib
to FALSE
in
your final analysis. If the calibration method used in calibfit
is not "wild", this parameter has no effect.
mask: a mask can be used so to remove all values falling in the mask.
This can be useful for performing for example assignments on lands only and
discard anything falling in large bodies of water (see example). By default
our OceanMask
is considered. Setting mask
to NULL allows
to prevent this automatic behaviour.
This function returns a list of class ISOFIND containing
itself three lists (sample
, group
, and sp_points
)
storing all rasters built during assignment and the spatial points for
sources, calibration and assignments. The list sample
contains
three set of raster layers: one storing the value of the test statistic
("stat"), one storing the value of the variance of the test statistic
("var") and one storing the p-value of the test ("pv"). The list
group
contains one raster storing the p-values of the assignment for
the group. The list sp_points
contains two spatial point
objects: sources
and calibs
.
See AssignDataAlien
to know which variables are needed to
perform the assignment and their names.

## The examples below will only be run if sufficient time is allowed
## You can change that by typing e.g. options_IsoriX(example_maxtime = XX)
## if you want to allow for examples taking up to ca. XX seconds to run
## (so don't write XX but put a number instead!)

## We perform the assignment on land only

### Other example without calibration:

## We create the assignment data taking

## We perform the assignment
AssignedGP <- isofind(

## We plot the assignment and
## show where the station really is (using lattice)
