I get errors with all your commands and have no idea how to fix them without data. There is almost no clue how your data look like so I can not simulate them myself. As there is nothing we can try to operate on, you probably does not get many answers. Please provide at least structure of your data str(wvs.a) if not some part of it preferably by using ?dput.
