[R] reception of (Vegan) envfit analysis by manuscript reviewers

[Matt Bakker]

I'm getting lots of grief from reviewers about figures generated with
the envfit function in the Vegan package. Has anyone else struggled to
effectively explain this analysis? If so, can you share any helpful
tips?

The most recent comment I've gotten back: "What this shows is which
NMDS axis separates the communities, not the relationship between the
edaphic factor and the Bray-Curtis distance."

Thanks for any suggestions!
