Tri-trophic statistics.
NvMTriTrophicTable(collection)
collection |
an object of class |
Returns a data.frame
that contains the same statistics
presented in Table 1 on Cohen et al 2009 PNAS. The function removes
nodes lacking body mass (M) and/or numerical abundance (N), cannibalistic
links and isolated nodes from each community. The last eight rows of the
table contain four network statistics both with and without these removals.
