Hello R experts, I am new to Vegan and use trying to follow the tutorial to perform NMDS for my data. But after performing the metaMDS, when I plotted my results the default plot shows MDS1 vs MDS2. Thought according to the tutorial Default ordination plot should display NMDS1vs NMDS2. Why is this difference? Accourding to tutorial it says: Function metaMDS is a wrapper to perform NMDS. Can anybody please help me to understand this? Thanks, Mitra
They are just labels and metaMDS **has** performed an NMDS. Not sure why
Jari labelled these as "MDSx". If this bothers you so, add your own
labels:
require("vegan")
data(dune)
sol <- metaMDS(dune)
plot(sol, xlab = "NMDS1", ylab = "NMDS2")
