C_sor: Pairwise Sorensen associations among species in a community...

Description Usage Arguments Value References

View source: R/measures_for_incidence_matrices.R

Description

Arita (2017) also quotes this to be the "index of co-incidence" of Dice (1945). Note: Before the calculation, species (rows) with zero occurrences, and sites (columns) with zero species are removed from m.

Usage

1
C_sor(m, clean = TRUE)

Arguments

m

Community data matrix with species as rows and sites as columns. Can contain either incidences (1/0) or abundances (natural numbers).

clean

Logical. Do you want to remove zero-sum rows or columns? When the index needs the "d" fraction (sites where no species occurs), only zero-sum rows are removed.

Value

A dist or data.frame objects with the pairwise association values.
