Distance-based functional diversity measures and their decomposition: a framework based on Hill numbers
CH Chiu, A Chao - PloS one, 2014 - journals.plos.org
Hill numbers (or the “effective number of species”) are increasingly used to characterize
species diversity of an assemblage. This work extends Hill numbers to incorporate species …
