fdis | R Documentation |
Computes average Functional Dispersion for several communities.
fdis(x, traits)
x |
A community data matrix containing the abundances of the species in the different communities. Rows are sites and species are columns. |
traits |
A distance matrix among species in |
This function is a wrap to fdisp
in package FD. It manages some of the possible problems that could appear when computing automatically functional dispersion for local communities in ifdar (mainly "empty" communities, common when computing ifdar(r) for very small r's). It is a kind of internal function that wouldn't be usually called by the user.
Numeric. The average functional dispersion of the communities in matrix x
