Analyze forest diversity and dynamics Analyze forest diversity and dynamics
fgeo helps you to install, load, and access the documentation of multiple packages to analyze forest diversity and dynamics (fgeo.analyze, fgeo.plot, fgeo.tool, fgeo.x). This package-collection allows you to manipulate and plot ForestGEO data, and to do common analyses including abundance, demography, and species-habitats associations.
Make sure your R environment is as follows:
update.packages(); maybe use ask = FALSE)Install the latest stable version of fgeo from CRAN with:

autoplot() and friends produce different output depending on the class of input. You can create different input classes, for example, with sp() and sp_elev():
sp(census) to plot the column sp of a census dataset – i.e. to plot species distribution.
sp_elev(census, elevation) to plot the columns sp and elev of a census and elevation dataset, respectively – i.e. to plot species distribution and topography.elevation <- fgeo.x::elevation
class(sp_elev(stem_2sp, elevation))
#> [1] "sp_elev" "list"
autoplot(sp_elev(stem_2sp, elevation))
abundance() and basal_area() calculate abundance and basal area, optionally by groups.
