Dear list, I have the model below which i am using to account for spatial autocorrelation:
exponential <-corExp(form = ~ Longitude + Latitude) explanation_mod_all <- gls(Lower_PD~Area+Elevation+Temperature+Preceipitation+Agriculture+Urban+Human.footprint+Population, correlation = exponential) I want to see if Latitude and Longitude are significant, is it statistically and methodologically correct to add them to the model i.e explanation_mod_all <- gls(Lower_PD~Area+Elevation+Temperature+Preceipitation+Agriculture+Urban+Human.footprint+Population+Longitude+Latitude, correlation = exponential) ?
