...sorry, i was somewhat slow here: of course it is the same as for other
stratified sampling designs where i have to care for not to mix values of
possibly very different ranges by the permutations..
if i've got it right, then this should give 2^n possible permutations with
the paired sampling with two time points.
concluding, given a large enough nr. of possible permutations, i suppose one
should be able to this kind of analysis with adonis. would you agree?
yours,
kay
