A gradient length of 3.4 SD indicates that species turnover is at a range where non-linear ordination methods are appropriate.
“Ordination by DCA for the fish species data resulted in an axis 1 gradient length of 3.4 SD, indicating that species turnover was at a range where non-linear methods are appropriate (results not shown) (ter Braak & Prentice, 1988).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
