Decluttering ordination plots in vegan part 2: orditorp()
In the earlier post in this series I looked at the ordilabel() function to help tidy up ordination biplots in vegan. An alternative function vegan provides is orditorp(), the last four letters abbreviating the words text or points. That is … Continue reading
Decluttering ordination plots in vegan part 1: ordilabel()
In an earlier post I showed how to customise ordination diagrams produced by our vegan package for R through use of colours and plotting symbols. In a series of short posts I want to cover some of the options available … Continue reading

Customising vegan’s ordination plots
As a developer on the vegan package for R, one of the most FAQs is how to customise ordination diagrams, usually to colour the sample points according to an external grouping variable. Now, just because we get asked how to … Continue reading
Generating sets of permutations
In previous posts I discussed how to generate a single permutation from a fully-randomised or restricted permutation design using shuffle(). Here I want to briefly mention the shuffleSet() function and illustrate it’s usage.

permute: a package for generating restricted permutations
Multivariate ordination methods are commonly used in ecology to investigate patterns in species composition in space or time. Constrained ordination methods such as redundancy analysis (RDA) and canonical correspondence analysis (CCA) are effectively just multiple regressions, but we lack the … Continue reading
