Collinearity test
Hi Maurizio, You can use vif, vifstep, vifcor and exclude functions in usdm package to deal with collinearity problem in environmental variables. The input variables can be either raster object or data.frames. You can find an example of using these function for SDM in the following reference: Naimi, B.,et al..(2013). Where is positional uncertainty a problem for species distribution modelling, Ecography. DOI: 10.1111/j.1600-0587.2013.00205.x<http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/j.1600-0587.2013.00205.x/abstract> Hope this helps. Cheers, Babak http://r-gis.net

Hi Maurizio, I used the rcorr function from the Hmisc package to calculate the Pearson correlation. Best, Andr? Ir.

Subject: [R-sig-Geo] Collinearity test
Hallo everybody,
I'm working with Species Distibution Models to predict the potential distribution of a forest specie.
I use WorldClim raster data for Italy and before running SDMs algorithm I would like to test the collineariy between factors to eliminate redundancy of data.
My question in: is there a package that can be used to Test collinearity between factors of a raster stack (worldclim biovariables)?
Thanks,
