Arguments

x

the SynTreeSys database

minN

numerical. The minimum number of individuals per plot. Defaults to zero.

maxN

numerical. The maximum number of individuals per plot. Defaults to Inf.

minCutOff

numerical. The minimum size criteria cutoff of the plot (in mm). Defaults to zero.

group.name

character. The STS column name with the categorie used for grouping abundances.

spp.name

character. The STS column name with the (morpho)species name. Defaults to "organismNameCurated".

remove.indet

logical. Should morphospecies not identified at the species level be removed? Defaults to TRUE

abund.metric

character. The STS column name with the abundance metric to be used to build the SAD. Defaults to "countsMeasurement"

strata.names

vector of characters. The names of the strata the should be kept in the analyses.
