Plot the contribution of the initial variables to the analysis (i.e. correlation circle). Typically these are the eigen vectors and eigen values in ordinations.
ecospat.plot.contrib (contrib, eigen)
A dataframe of the contribution of each original variable on each axis of the analysis, i.e. the eigen vectors.
A vector of the importance of the axes in the ordination, i.e. a vector of eigen values.
