Hello,
I tried with ddply
ddply(dat1,.(Data,Plot,Lat,LatCat,Elevation,Type,Area,Density),summarize,sum(Stems))
Data Plot Lat LatCat Elevation Type Area Density ..1
1 VTM 39C16 39.76282 Lat6 1500 Conifer 751.5347 0.00000 0
2 VTM 39C16 39.76282 Lat6 1500 Conifer 751.5347 13.30611 1
3 VTM 39F11 39.57721 Lat6 500 Conifer 751.5347 0.00000 0
4 VTM 39F13 39.56214 Lat6 1500 Conifer 694.0784 0.00000 4
5 VTM 39F14 39.54522 Lat6 900 Conifer 763.9850 0.00000 2
6 VTM 39F14 39.54522 Lat6 900 Conifer 763.9850 13.08926 1
Results look same as in aggregate.
Suppose, if you take out density,
ddply(dat1,.(Data,Plot,Lat,LatCat,Elevation,Type,Area),summarize,sum(Stems))
Data Plot Lat LatCat Elevation Type Area ..1
1 VTM 39C16 39.76282 Lat6 1500 Conifer 751.5347 1
2 VTM 39F11 39.57721 Lat6 500 Conifer 751.5347 0
3 VTM 39F13 39.56214 Lat6 1500 Conifer 694.0784 4
4 VTM 39F14 39.54522 Lat6 900 Conifer 763.9850 3
I guess now it is summed.
A.K.

ok, so it looks like aggregate lists them separately unless everything
in the 2 rows matches. Below, we have 2 plots where the density is
different in Class3 than Class4, and these are not summed. Is that your
understanding?
Thanks for your help.
