experience with this function (as I told you I usually work with the
Hi Alex,

clustering method would identify the relationship, from your example
dd-dist(cbind(x,y))
cuttree(hclust(dd),2)
However, what I think you are after is simply thresholding. So
if x are your bird coordinates, then,

A difference between two communities within a host could still exist and
could make perfect sense, too, when you regard community as a random
factor. Then community may introduce some extra variation (compared to
the within-community variation), experimentally seen interesting and
important,
