PL5 Characterising Plant Communities - Taxonomic diversity indices

5 Abril 2022, 08:00 Cristina Máguas

1. How to describe diversity?

2. Diversity indices  (Richness, Simpson, Shannon, Evenness)

3.  Alpha, beta and gamma diversity

4.  Case studies:

- Noriega et al. 2021 "Short‑ and long‑term temporal changes in the assemblage structure of Amazonian dung beetles". Oecologia. https://doi.org/10.1007/s00442-020-04831-5

- Chozas et al. 2022 "Small rocky outcrops: natural features to promote biodiversity in oak wood‐pastures". Applied Vegetation Science 25.1 (2022): e12634.  https://doi.org/10.1111/avsc.126345.

Practical exercise: Calculating and comparing Richness and Shannon and Simpson Indices among lawns and colleagues using their own samplings and  R and/or Excel softwares.
