Indeed! To expand on this: if you need a tutorial for mvabund, we once
analysed some categorical multivariate data and provided a tutorial:
http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/s10646-015-1421-0
Paper and tutorial are freely available on researchgate
There are also many other methods, but to point you to some, it would be
good if you were more specific than ?community- environment relationships?.
Best regards

As far as I remember, on Windows you will need to download and install the
Rtools first (https://cran.r-project.org/bin/windows/Rtools/) because
some parts of mvpart need to be compiled.
You can analyse multiple species-environment relationships with the
mvabund package. This is not fancy machine-learning but solid likelihood
statistic.

Manuel,
I just checked, it is currently still compatible. So you can download
from the archive and install from source - at least on Linux and OS X, nut
sure about Windows.
See Session information below:
R version 3.4.0 (2017-04-21)
Platform: x86_64-apple-darwin15.6.0 (64-bit)
Running under: macOS Sierra 10.12.5

attached base packages:
[1] stats graphics grDevices utils datasets methods base
other attached packages:
[1] mvpart_1.6-2
loaded via a namespace (and not attached):
[1] compiler_3.4.0
However, there are certainly other packages that can partition
multivariate ecological data, though I am not aware of other packages for
use with multivariate regression trees.

Thank you Ralf,
But I guess is not going to be newer versions and could be incompatible
with newer version of R, so at some moment there will be no accessibility
to the package.

despite it has been removed, it should still work.
At least I used it last year - just install the version from the

Dear list members,
As mvpart has been removed form the CRAN repository, Is there any r
that do similar analysis (multivariate partitioning)?
Also, is there any other machine learning technique to do multivariate
analysis as done in ecology to asses multiple species-environment
relationships?
Thank you very much in advance,
Manuel
