Is there a method in R for testing for independence of vegetation samples, for example because of relative proximity of different samples? I would like to treat the 3 radially arranged transects of Jornada Line Point Index plots as different sample units. Mike Marsh Washington Native Plant Society
You can look at the scale of spatial autocorrelation in the data, but really? I can't imagine how the LPI transects at a single point could be considered independent. Sarah
