Plot all pairwise 2D ellipsoid projections — plot_ellipsoid

Plots all pairwise two-dimensional slices of a nicheR_ellipsoid in a multi-panel layout using plot_ellipsoid(). When background or prediction is supplied, axis limits are computed once from the global range of all variables and shared across every panel, so projections are directly comparable without distortion from per-panel rescaling.

Usage

plot_ellipsoid_pairs(object, background = NULL, prediction = NULL, ...)

Arguments

object: A nicheR_ellipsoid object.
background: Optional data frame or matrix of background points passed to each plot_ellipsoid() call. When provided, global axis limits are computed from the range of all variables in background combined with all pairwise ellipsoid boundaries.
prediction: Optional data frame or matrix of prediction values passed to each plot_ellipsoid() call. Used when background is NULL. Global limits are computed from the range of all variables in prediction.
...: Additional graphical arguments passed to plot_ellipsoid().

Value

Invisibly returns NULL.

Details

Global limits are computed per variable across the full data and all ellipsoid boundary projections, then passed to each panel via the fixed_lims argument of plot_ellipsoid(). This prevents individual panels from rescaling to their own data extent, which would make niche widths appear identical across dimensions even when they differ. If neither background nor prediction is provided, each panel shows only the ellipsoid boundary and limits come from that boundary alone, which is the intended behavior for a boundary-only view.
