Data sets



A description of available example data sets is expected shortly. The example data sets names are :
data.arr
data.atl
data.galap
data.glea
data.gleas

mmSAR handles SAR data sets as list-objects. A data set is a list of 2 elements :

  • $name : a character string specifying the name of the data set

  • $data : a R data.frame object with 2 columns :

    • $a : a numeric vector of areas

    • $s : a numeric vector of species richness


mmSAR provide some example data sets, for example to load a species-area dataset describing the plants of the Galapagos Islands (Preston, 1962) use :

load(data.galap)
