Hi everyone,
I have a dataset that has plant species with the slope and distance
along the transect recorded for each observed plant. There are multiple
occurrences of each species. So far I have done a cluster analysis
using hclust() from the vegan package after having calculated the
average slope and distance for each species (so the dataset only has one
record for each species). I would like to take all of the data into
account and was wondering if there was a clustering method that can take
into account the distribution of the data - for example, could the
species be put into groups that have a similar histogram for their slope
and distance data?
Thanks for your help!
best,
Michele

"The purpose of R-sig-ecology is two fold.
First, we want to provide a discussion forum for those analyzing ecological and
environmental data with R.
Second, we want to encourage R users of all ability and experience to
participate so that we may grow the
community of ecologists and environmental scientists that use R."
