get_rand_sad R Documentation
Randomly sample of a relative abundance distribution (RAD)
to produce an expected species abundance distribution (SAD)
Description
Randomly sample of a relative abundance distribution (RAD)
to produce an expected species abundance distribution (SAD)
Usage
get_rand_sad(rad, N)
Arguments
rad
the relative abundance of each species
N
the total number of individuals sampled
Randomly subsampling an RAD with replacement produces an SAD that is of a
similar functional form (Green and Plotkin 2007) but with overall species
richness equal to or less than the relative abundance distribution.
Literature Cited:
Green, J. L., and J. B. Plotkin. 2007. A statistical theory
for sampling species abundances. Ecology Letters 10:1037-1045.
