Fig. 22 in Taxonomy and distribution of recent species of the subfamily Nodosariinae (Foraminifera) in Icelandic waters

Fig. 22. Results of non-metric multidimensional scaling (NMDS) ordination of community composition based on Bray-Curtis dissimilarities on presence/absence data from BIOICE samples of the RPepibenthic and detritus sledges. A. Ordination plot showing site scores as grey dots and species positions in red. Level curves for depth (pale blue) are fitted to NMDS scores with a generalized additive model (vegan function ordisurf). Blue vectors represent linear effects of environmental gradients in latitude, longitude, and depth fitted with the vegan function envfit. B. Map of Icelandic waters with sites colour coded by their scores on the first NMDS axis.
