Dear R community, once again I request your generous help on an R issue I cannot seem to figure out.

I am trying to do some analysis for multiple sites, in my example I am using only two, but the same will done on many sites. It's just ONE line, so I hope somebody can give a me a hand by email.

Look at the loop to make the plot x ~ y. If the curve function is removed from the loop everything works fine, but when I tried to add the curve to the plot, I get the following error:

Error in xy.coords(x, y) : x and y lengths differ
In addition: Warning message:
'newdata' had 101 rows but variable(s) found have 6 rows

I know this error should be a hint about how to proceed but I am stuck figuring ways to make the curve to print in the plots.

Any hints on how to solve this issue would be greatly appreciated.

Sincerely,

Jose
