Classifies metacommunities

Description

Identifies structure (or quasi-structure) and outputs a classification.

Usage

IdentifyStructure(metacom.obj)

Arguments

Value

Ouputs a classification of the metacommunity.

Note

Quasi structures, as well as 'random' and 'Gleasonian' structures, may not strictly be discernable through the EMS approach, as they rely on inferring a result from a non-significant test ('accepting the null'), which is typically a bad idea.
