Description Usage Arguments Details Value Author(s)

Compute trait metrics from benthic count data.

1	trait.stat(bcnt.otu, coefs)

`bcnt.otu`	Benthic count file with OTU defined consistently with selected trait file
`coefs`	Trait file

OTUs appropriate for the selected trait file must first be assigned using get.otu. A list of trait files provided in the library can be obtained using sel.coeffile. Script will compute richness, relative richness, and relative abundance of each trait group. Note that many taxa in a benthic count file are often not assigned to traits, and so relative richness and relative abundance values within a given sample may not sum to 1.

Data frame of trait metrics.
