Subject: combining linear and geometric measurements
To: "morphmet@morphometrics.org" <morphmet@morphometrics.org>
Hi everyone,
An issue that I’m sure someone can provide insight on…
I have a mix of traditional (linear) measurements and geometric morphometric
(2D landmark) data from several rodent taxa that I would like to perform
PCA/DFA on to hopefully discriminate groups based on ecomorpholoy.
What is the best way to combine these 2 types of data?? Can they simply be
appended and PCA performed as usual??
Thanks much-
-Bryan
