## Introduction

Package `indicspecies` provides functions to conduct:

* **Indicator species analysis**: Assess the strength and statistical significance of the relationship between species occurrence/abundance and groups of sites (De Cáceres & Legendre 2009; De Cáceres et al. 2010; De Cáceres et al. 2012).

* **Species niche analysis**: Measure species niche metrics using resource categories (De Cáceres et al. 2011).

## Package installation

Package`indicspecies` can be found at [CRAN](https://cran.r-project.org/) package repository. In addition, the latest stable `indicspecies` R package can be installed from GitHub as follows:

```{r installation, eval = FALSE}
remotes::install_github("emf-creaf/indicspecies")
```

Additionally, users can have help to run package functions directly as package vignettes, by forcing their inclusion in installation: 
```{r installation vignettes, eval = FALSE}
remotes::install_github("emf-creaf/indicspecies", 
                        build_opts = c("--no-resave-data", "--no-manual"),
                        build_vignettes = TRUE)
```

## Usage

Use `strassoc()` for assessing strength of associations and `signassoc()` to assess the statistical significance of the associations (De Cáceres & Legendre 2009). Much more complete functions are `multipatt()` (De Cáceres et al. 2010) and `indicators()` (De Cáceres et al. 2012). 


## Maintenance

Although not in active development, the R package is maintained by the [*Ecosystem Modelling Facility*](https://emf.creaf.cat) unit at CREAF (in Spain).
