  • Changing the minimum number of plots per group for Czekanowski similarity
    calculations to 2.
  • Removing the ability to toggle the inclusion/exclusion of bryophyte taxa.
  • Tidying the names and order of the RMAVIS results .xlsx download.
  • Changing "National Reference Spaces" option in the MVA module to
    "Reference Spaces" and altering the module so that the local reference
    ordinations are also linked to this option.

  • Adding a new object RMAVIS::broad_habitat_indicators which is used in the function RMAVIS::match_broad_habitats to identify broad habitats.
  • Expanding the contents of the NVC Lookup (now called NVC Information) tab.
  • Adding the ability to select any combination of the original, SOWG, and/or Calthion NVC communities.
  • Adding the ability to filter taxa which occur at a frequency of less than 5% from the survey data.
  • Now displaying the number of plots, the minimum, mean, and maximum species richness, the total number of species,
    and community-mean Hill-Ellenberg values for each floristic table composed from the survey data vs each NVC community floristic table.
