site.fit.gam: Fit a gam model to an individual site data set

In dsjohnson/agTrend.gam: Estimate Linear Trends for Aggregated Abundance Data

Description

The purpose of this function is to allow a user to fit the gam model which is used for imputation to a sigle site's worth of data. This is primarily used for testing purposes and not meant to be called by the user in general.

Usage

site.fit.gam(data, obs.formula = NULL, sig.abund = NULL, min.k = 3,
  ln.adj = 0, family = "tw", obs.prior = NULL)

Arguments

data	data
obs.formula	Formula for the observation model
sig.abund	Variance estimates for abundance response if it is estimated.
min.k	Minimum df for the thin-plate regression spine model fit to the counts
ln.adj	Amount to add to zero valued abundances before taking logs
obs.prior	List that provides the mean (named 'gamma.mean') and covariance matrix for the observation model coefficients (named 'gamma.vcov')

Value

a list...
