dynRB_Pn {dynRB}

Pairwise overlaps for each dimension

Description

Function returns pairwise overlaps for each dimension n. Number of dynamic range boxes (steps) can be adjusted. Default: steps = 201

Usage

dynRB_Pn(A = A, steps = 201, correlogram = FALSE, row_col = c(2, 2))

Arguments

A

Data frame, where the first column is a character vector containing the objects (e.g. species) and the other columns are numeric vectors (containing measurements).

steps

Number of range boxes. Default: steps = 201

correlogram

If TRUE, the correlogram for each species is shown. If FALSE, no correlogram is shown. Default: correlogram = FALSE

row_col

Number of rows and columns of the figures (correlogram for each species). Default: row_col = c(2, 2)

Value

Data frame containing the summarized overlaps for each pair of objects and dimension.
