Hi,
I am using mgcv:gam and have developed a model with 5 smoothed predictors
and one factor.
gam1 <- gam(log.sp~ s(Spr.precip,bs="ts") + s(Win.precip,bs="ts") + s(
Spr.Tmin,bs="ts") + s(P.sum.Tmin,bs="ts") + s( Win.Tmax,bs="ts")
+factor(site),data=dat3)
The total deviance explained = 70.4%.
I would like to extract the variance explained by each predictor. Is there
a straightforward way to do this? I have tried dropping a term and
recalculating the model, but the edf's change if there is any correlation
among variables, thereby making all of the relationships different. I
haven't yet figured out how to fix the smoothing terms- I get syntax error
messages. Among other variations, I tried, for example,
log.sp~s(Spr.precip, sp=3.9, fx=TRUE) +...
Thanks in advance,
KC
