fourth.corner(R, L, Q, chessel = FALSE)

## S3 method for class 'fc'
print(x, ...)

## S3 method for class 'fc'
summary(object, ...)

fourth.corner.ade(sitspe, speatt, env, fc.test, perm, chessel = FALSE)

Arguments

R, env

Matrix of sample attributes.

L, sitspe

Matrix of species composition.

Q, speatt

Matrix of species attributes

chessel

Logical; should the Chessel's variant of the fourth corner statistic be returned? Default is FALSE

x, object

Object of 'cwm' class.

...

Other arguments passing into print or summary functions (not implemented yet).

fc.test

Test to be chosen for fourthcorner analysis.

perm

Number of permutations.

Details

Chessel's version of the fourth corner statistic has been introduced by Peres-Neto et al. (2016), to rescale the fourth corner r statistic into the range of -1 and 1. This is achieved by dividing the observed fourth corner r by square root of the first eigenvalue for correspondance analysis of L (sitspe) matrix.
