Get Species or Site Scores from an Ordination

Description

Function to access either species or site scores for specified axes in co-correspondence analysis ordination methods.

Usage

## S3 method for class 'predcoca'
scores(x, choices = c(1, 2),
       display = c("sites","species"), ...)

## S3 method for class 'symcoca'
scores(x, choices = c(1, 2),
       display = c("sites","species"), scaling = FALSE, ...)

Arguments

x	an ordination result
display	partial match to access scores for “sites” “species”, “loadings” or “xmatrix”. The latter two are only available for symcoca.
choices	numeric; the ordination axes to return.
scaling	logical; whether scores should be rescaled by the quarter root of the eigenvalues using rescale.symcoca.
...	arguments to be passed to other methods.

Details

Implements a scores method for symmetric co-correspondence analysis ordination results.

Value

A list with one or more components containing matrices of the requested scores:

species	A list with two components, Y and X, containing the species scores for the response matrix Y and the predictor matrix X respectively.
sites	A list with two components, Y and X, containing the site scores for the response matrix Y and the predictor matrix X respectively.
loadings	A list with two components, Y and X containing the loadings for the response and predictor matrix. For symcoca only.
xmatrix	The X matrix. For symcoca only.

Examples

## load some data
data(beetles)
data(plants)

## log transform the bettle data
beetles <- log(beetles + 1)

## fit the model, a symmetric CoCA
bp.sym <- coca(beetles ~ ., data = plants, method = "symmetric")

## extract the scores
scr <- scores(bp.sym)

## predictive CoCA using SIMPLS and formula interface
bp.pred <- coca(beetles ~ ., data = plants)
scr2 <- scores(bp.pred)
