Convert NMDS object in vegan to a tibble object

Question

[Paula]

Hello!

I ran an NMDS in a dataset with 13 rows and 2630148 columns using vegan. Now I am trying to save the scores of the NMDS to a tibble table. I am running the following command:

scores(nmds) %>%
   as_tibble(rownames = "samples")

And I am obtaining the following error:

Error:

! Tibble columns must have compatible sizes.

• Size 13: Column sites.

• Size 2630148: Column species.

ℹ Only values of size one are recycled.

Run rlang::last_error() to see where the error occurred.

Do you know how can I fix it? Because of the structure of my data the "sites" and "species" have to be different.

Thank you!

what exactly do you expect as the structure of your resulting tibble? According to your error message scores(nmds) returns a list of two separate vectors which seemingly do not correspond to each other, i.e. you do not have enough data points for a 13x2630148 data frame. How do the sites values relate to species?
