In ecocbo: Calculating Optimum Sampling Effort in Community Ecology

Data set containing the results of applying ecocbo::prep_data().

Description

The dataset contains the results of applying ecocbo::prep_data() to epiDat. The result is a list with one level: $Results is a data frame with the results of applying PERMANOVA to epiDat a number of times, it contains the values of pseudoF and the mean squares for different repeated sampling efforts.

This dataset can be used to study the variability of the pseudoF-statistic, beta and the power when an experiment is applied to a varying number of samples, sampling units, or sampling sites.

Usage

data("simResults")

Format

An object of class "ecocbo_data", also a list containing one data frame. The format is:

$Results		a data frame that contains the results of the evaluation of sim_beta.
	dat.sim	simulation from which the results are obtained.
	k	number of resample for the result.
	m	number of sites considered for the result.
	n	number of replicates within each site for the result.
	pseudoFH0	observed F value for the experimental design, when all observations belong to one site.
	pseudoFHa	observed F value for the experimental design, when observations belong to different sites.
	AMSHa	calculated mean squares among sites in the experiment.
	RMSHa	calculated mean squares for the residuals in the experiment.

Details

This dataset comes from applying ecocbo::prep_data() to the basic data from ecocbo::epiDat.
