Calculate ecological guilds for diatoms
Description
The input for these functions is the resulting dataframe obtained from the diat_loadData() function, to calculate the ecological guilds for the diatoms Sample data in the examples is taken from:
Nicolosi Gelis, María Mercedes; Cochero, Joaquín; Donadelli, Jorge; Gómez, Nora. 2020. "Exploring the use of nuclear alterations, motility and ecological guilds in epipelic diatoms as biomonitoring tools for water quality improvement in urban impacted lowland streams". Ecological Indicators, 110, 105951. https://doi:10.1016/j.ecolind.2019.105951
Guild classification is obtained from:
Rimet F. & Bouchez A., 2012. Life-forms, cell-sizes and ecological guilds of diatoms in European rivers. Knowledge and management of aquatic ecosystems, 406: 1-14. DOI:10.1051/kmae/2012018
Usage
diat_guilds(resultLoad)
Arguments
resultLoad |
The resulting list obtained from the diat_loadData() function |
Examples
# Example using sample data included in the package (sampleData):
data("diat_sampleData")
# First, the diat_loadData() function has to be called to read the data
# The data will be stored into a list (loadedData)
# And an output folder will be selected through a dialog box if resultsPath is empty
# In the example, a temporary directory will be used in resultsPath
df <- diat_loadData(diat_sampleData, resultsPath = tempdir())
guildsResults <- diat_guilds(df)
