is_azoic {benthos} | R Documentation |
Test for Azoic Samples
Description
Case-insensitive test for taxa starting with 'azoi'
Usage
is_azoic(x)
Arguments
x |
character vector containing taxa |
Details
Azoic samples need special attention during data analysis. They should be marked as 'azoic', and taken care of during analysis. Note that an azoic sample is not the same as a record where a taxon has zero counts. The latter should be removed from further analysis, whereas the former provides important information.
Value
logical vector, with elements TRUE
for azoic samples,
and FALSE
otherwise.
