synchrony: Calculate the Loreau and de Mazencourt synchrony index
In seananderson/ecofolio: Tools to quantify metapopulation portfolio effects
Description
Usage
Arguments
References
Description
Takes a matrix of abundance or biomass data and returns the
synchrony index. The synchrony index varies between 0 (maximally
asynchronous) and 1 (maximally synchronous) and is independent of
the number of species or subpopulations.
Usage
1
synchrony(x)
Arguments
x
A matrix or dataframe of abundance or biomass data. The
columns should represent different subpopulations or species. The
rows should represent the values through time.
