Hello,
I would like to perform an NMDS on the following:
I have two independent variables, which are sites and treatments.
I have 6 sites which are peatlands. I collected 5 replicates (at the same time)
from each of the sites.
I used each of the replicates in a treatment.
There were 4 treatments. 2 were controls and the other two were a simulated 30
day drought and a simulated 60 day drought.
>From each of the replicates in each of the treatments I measured pH and
>nitrate, sulphate, dissolved organic carbon, calcium, magnesium, nickel,
>cobalt, aluminum, and copper concentrations.
I tried performing an NMDS using the following tutorial
http://strata.uga.edu/software/pdf/mdsTutorial.pdf. However, I did not take
into account sites or treatments. All the data was used without making those
distinctions.
I would like to make an NMDS plot which distinguishes the points as sites and
another plot which distinguishes the points as treatments but which still
demonstrates where the pH, nitrate, sulphate, etc variables are located across
the plot.
Do you know how I can accomplish this?
I hope I am clear in my explanation.
Thank you,
Myra
