A ordinary least square regression is performed on nonzero relative abundance data given a list of covariates, or explanatory variables such as ph, treatment, etc to test for specific effects. The relative abundance data is transformed into balances using the ILR transformation, using a tree to specify the groupings of the features. The regression is then performed on each balance separately. Only positive data will be accepted, so if there are zeros present, consider using a zero imputation method such as ``multiplicative_replacement`` or add a pseudocount.

These proportions will be converted to balances according to the tree specified. And the regression formula is specified to run `temp` and `ph` against the proportions in a single model. >>> res = ols('temp + ph', proportions, env_vars, tree) From the summary results of the `ols` function, we can view the pvalues according to how well each individual balance fitted in the regression model. >>> res.pvalues Intercept ph temp Y1 2.479592e-01 1.990984e-11 0.243161 Y2 6.089193e-10 5.052733e-01 0.279805 We can also view the balance coefficients estimated in the regression model.
