I'm running a bunch of NMS with vectors fitted (slicing and dicing a large dataset in different ways). I'm suddenly getting an error from envfit
f.bSBS.org.fit<-envfit(f.bSBS.org.nms, f.bSBS.org.env, permutations=999, na.rm=TRUE) Error in vectorfit(X, P, permutations, strata, choices, w = w, ...) : NA/NaN/Inf in foreign function call (arg 1) In addition: Warning message: In vectorfit(X, P, permutations, strata, choices, w = w, ...) : NAs introduced by coercion I can plot the NMS and even run ordifit on individual env variables, so can't figure out what the problem is. There aren't any NA/NaN/Inf in either of those data that I can find. I've tried running it without na.rm=TRUE and still get the error. Guidance on how to fix this would be appreciated. Here's the whole slicing process and str for the data f.bSBS.org<-f.env$zone.hor=="bSBS.1" f.bSBS.org.tyc<-f.tyc[f.bSBS.org,f.bSBS.org] f.bSBS.org.env<-subset(f.env, f.env$zone.hor=="bSBS.1") f.bSBS.org.nms<-metaMDS(as.dist(f.bSBS.org.tyc), k=3, trymin=50, trymax=250, wascores=FALSE) f.bSBS.org.fit<-envfit(f.bSBS.org.nms, f.bSBS.org.env, permutations=999, na.rm=TRUE) str(f.bSBS.org.env) 'data.frame': 63 obs. of 14 variables: $ zone : Factor w/ 6 levels "bIDF","bSBS",..: 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 ... $ site : Factor w/ 18 levels "A7","A8","A9",..: 12 12 12 12 12 12 12 12 12 12 ... $ om : Factor w/ 4 levels "0","1","2","3": 2 2 2 3 3 3 2 2 2 3 ... $ compaction : num 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 ... $ herbicide : num 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 ... $ horizon : Factor w/ 2 levels "1","2": 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 ... $ Water_content: num 50.3 50.3 50.3 50.1 50.1 ... $ DNA_ug_g : num 71.2 71.2 71.2 68.6 68.6 ... $ C : num 30.5 30.5 30.5 28.4 28.4 ... $ N : num 0.863 0.863 0.863 0.81 0.81 ... $ pH_H2O : num 4.63 4.63 4.63 4.49 4.49 ... $ CN : num 35.3 35.3 35.3 35.1 35.1 ... $ f.env$zone : Factor w/ 6 levels "bIDF","bSBS",..: 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 ... $ zone.hor : chr "bSBS.1" "bSBS.1" "bSBS.1" "bSBS.1" ... str(f.bSBS.org.nms) List of 35 $ nobj : int 63 $ nfix : int 0 $ ndim : num 3 $ ndis : int 1953 $ ngrp : int 1 $ diss : num [1:1953] 0.00424 0.00437 0.05169 0.07522 0.11039 ... $ iidx : int [1:1953] 12 8 55 56 52 7 56 12 59 52 ... $ jidx : int [1:1953] 7 6 18 55 8 3 18 3 12 49 ... $ xinit : num [1:189] 0.654 0.837 0.438 0.105 -0.313 ... $ istart : int 1 $ isform : int 1 $ ities : int 1 $ iregn : int 1 $ iscal : int 1 $ maxits : int 200 $ sratmx : num 1 $ strmin : num 1e-04 $ sfgrmn : num 1e-07 $ dist : num [1:1953] 0.0679 0.0231 0.3598 0.1248 0.1422 ... $ dhat : num [1:1953] 0.0455 0.0455 0.2076 0.2076 0.2076 ... $ points : num [1:63, 1:3] -0.1256 0.1224 0.267 0.2374 -0.0427 ... ..- attr(*, "dimnames")=List of 2 .. ..$ : chr [1:63] "LL001" "LL002" "LL003" "LL007" ... .. ..$ : chr [1:3] "MDS1" "MDS2" "MDS3" ..- attr(*, "centre")= logi TRUE ..- attr(*, "pc")= logi TRUE ..- attr(*, "halfchange")= logi FALSE $ stress : num 0.157 $ grstress : num 0.157 $ iters : int 180 $ icause : int 3 $ call : language metaMDS(comm = as.dist(f.bSBS.org.tyc), k = 3, trymax = 250, wascores = FALSE, trymin = 50) $ model : chr "global" $ distmethod: chr "user supplied" $ distcall : chr "as.dist.default(m = f.bSBS.org.tyc)" $ distance : chr "user supplied" $ converged : logi TRUE $ tries : num 23 $ engine : chr "monoMDS" $ species : logi NA $ data : chr "as.dist(f.bSBS.org.tyc)" - attr(*, "class")= chr [1:2] "metaMDS" "monoMDS" -- Kendra Maas Mitchell, Ph.D. Post Doctoral Research Fellow University of British Columbia 604-822-5646 [[alternative HTML version deleted]] _______________________________________________ R-sig-ecology mailing list R-sig-ecology@r-project.org https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-sig-ecology
