[R-sig-eco] script for a mixed and nested model using adonis

[ileana ortega]

Hello,


I'm trying to run a mixed model of nested permanova with adonis function in R. I'm not sure how to write the factors in the script so R understand which are fixed factors and which are nested factors.

I want to test diferences between:

estuaries (fixed, 2 levels),

points (random, 4 levels, nested in estuaries),

depht (random, 2 levels, nested in points),

season (fixed, 4 levels and orthogonal to estuaries),

and month (18 levels, random, nested in season)


Some one can help me?
