computeAssociations function

computeAssociations

Computes the species association matrices associated with each random level

computeAssociations(hM, start = 1, thin = 1)

Arguments

• hM: a fitted Hmsc model object
• start: index of first MCMC sample included
• thin: thinning interval of posterior distribution

Returns

list of association matrices ($\omega$) corresponding to each random level in the model

Examples

# Compute the associations (residual correlations) between species from a HMSC model
assoc = computeAssociations(TD$m)
