Extract a subset of sites or species from a bioregion.clusters object

This function extracts a subset of nodes based on their type ("site" or "species") from a bioregion.clusters object, which contains both types of nodes (sites and species).

Usage

site_species_subset(clusters, node_type = "site")

Arguments

clusters: An object of class bioregion.clusters.
node_type: A character string indicating the type of nodes to extract. Possible values are "site" or "species". The default is "site".

Value

An object of class bioregion.clusters containing only the specified node type (sites or species).

Note

Some bioregion.clusters objects may contain both types of nodes (sites and species). This information is available in the $inputs$node_type slot.

This function allows you to extract a specific type of node (either sites or species) from any bioregion.clusters object that includes both.
