I want to do this model using mgcv caco1.gam-gam(caco1$Pa~s(caco1$T10)+s(caco1$S10)+s(caco1$C10), data=caco1) But I want to indicate the degrees of freedom of each term, how I have to do it? Then, I saw that always the results refered to positive interactions, there are not negative ones?

I think it will be better if I explained what I want to do. I have the abundance of Penilia (zooplankter) as y and I have the temperature, salinity and chlorophyll concentration at different depths. I want to know which how the abundance of Penilia is modulate by those environmetal variables and

1) I have a semiparametric model, like *Y~x1+s(x2)+s(x3)* When I rum gam package I only obtained the estimates and the statistics of the nonparametric part. How can I get the parametric part? Please could you give me the complete comand to do it. 2) How are the negative coefficients identified. I

I have to evaluate how 4 different environmental variables could be use to explain the variability on the abundance of an specific species of zooplankton. I know that Generalized additive models are useful tools to evaluate this kind of relationships. 1) I want to know the difference to use the
