Matching Two Multivariate Patterns (Bio-Env and Relate)
The RELATE routine provides a means of testing for correlations between two multivariate patterns within two different, but potentially related datasets. RELATE tests are used to test for correlations between the distribution of biological communities and the distribution of sediment types. The BIO-ENV sub-routine is an exploratory tool that matches multivariate patterns so that combinations of variables are considered at ever increasing levels of complexity in order to find the BEST sub-set of variables that match with the biological patterns observed in the data.
B.5 GIS
All of the GIS maps used in this report were generated using ArcGIS 9.3.1. The WGS84 datum and UTM degrees N projection were used throughout.
