Bootstrap estimates of the decomposed Shannon's diversity index

Description

Computes bootstrap confidence intervals of the Shannon's diversity index

Usage

bs_dec(x, groups, B = 1000, cl = 0.95)

Arguments

x	Vector of dimension S (number of species) with the number of individuals observed in each species. NA values are allowed.
groups	Vector of dimension S of factors indicating the groups of each species.
B	Number of bootstrap samples. The default is 1000.
cl	Confidence level. A value between 0 and 1. The default is 0.95.

Value

• ci_bt: Confidence interval for "between groups".

• ci_wt: Confidence interval for "within groups".
