Reports observed climate statistics

Description

Helper function to report community climate statistics for the real community, i.e. not corrected for any null model.

Usage

climatestatistics(object)

Arguments

object

A CommunityClimateStatistics object

Value

A named list:

meanNiches

A dataframe with columns corresponding to climate axes, and one row for each species in the community. Each observation is the mean climate niche of that species at tinf.

inferredClimate

A vector with names corresponding to climate axes, representing the inferred climate determined by overlapping niches of all species in the community at tinf.

observedClimate

A vector with names corresponding to climate axes, representing the observed climate at tobs.

volumeMagnitude

A number representing the climate volume at tinf (Delta)

mismatchMagnitude

A number representing the magnitude of the climate mismatch at tinf relative to the climate at tobs (Lambda)

mismatchDirections

A vector with names corresponding to climate axes, representing the climate mismatch projected along each axis at tinf relative to the climate at tobs.
