"plot"(x, type = "hist", ...)The "hist" plot type is common to all EcoSimR modules. The blue histogram represents the NRep values of the metric for the simulated assemblages. The red vertical line represents the metric value for the real assemblage. The two pairs of vertical dashed black lines represent the one-tailed (long dash) and two-tailed (short dash) 95
The "niche" plot type illustrates the utilization data (observed = red, simulated = blue). Each row in the figure is a species, and each column is a resource utilization category. The area of each circle depicted is proportional to the utilization of a resoruce category by a species. Empty positions indicate a resource utilization of 0.0. The rows and columns are illustrated with the same ordering as the original data matrix.
