Hello List,
This is Elaine.
I am running betadiver for a dataset of 4873 rows and 2749 columns.
(4873 rows = 4873 gridcell of the study region and 2749 columns for the
bird species)
The dataset was produced by combing 5 dbf.
When running the code o, an error message jumped out, saying
"Error: cannot allocate vector of size 90.6 Mb"
I posted the issue in r-help and checked the previous mails about R memory
problems.
gc() and save .Rdata were tried but did not work.
Also, I tried to transformed the dataset into a matrix, using the code m
below.
However, an error also appeared, saying
"Error in ifelse(x > 0, 1, 0) :
(list) object cannot be coerced to type 'double'."
Please kindly advise how to alleviate the memory problem, particularly in
modifying the code of betadiver of vegan.
Thank you.
Elaine
