test for TWI*height interaction #45

Closed teixeirak closed 5 years ago

teixeirak commented 5 years ago

@mcgregorian1, we dropped this test when we found a negative effect of TWI on resistance, but upon second thought I'd still like to know if there's an interaction. It is interesting to know whether tall trees away from water (low TWI) have higher resistance because of larger root systems.

I just ran it and the result is here with the suffix "-TWIheight" at the end. Based on the dAIC values I don't think that helps the models much at all.

teixeirak commented 5 years ago

So we reject the hypothesis that there’s a TWI*height interaction and the best full model stays the same?

mcgregorian1 commented 5 years ago

That's how I understand it
