Function renyi
find Rényi diversities with any
scale or the corresponding Hill number (Hill 1973). Function
renyiaccum
finds these statistics with accumulating sites.

|
x |
Community data matrix or plotting object. |
scales |
Scales of Rényi diversity. |
hill |
Calculate Hill numbers. |
permutations |
Usually an integer giving the number
permutations, but can also be a list of control values for the
permutations as returned by the function |
raw |
if |
collector |
Accumulate the diversities in the order the sites are
in the data set, and the collector curve can be plotted against
summary of permutations. The argument is ignored if |
subset |
logical expression indicating sites (rows) to keep: missing
values are taken as |
what |
Items to be plotted. |
type |
Type of plot, where |
theta |
Angle defining the viewing direction (azimuthal) in
|
col |
Colours used for surface. Single colour will be passed on,
and vector colours will be
selected by the midpoint of a rectangle in |
zlim |
Limits of vertical axis. |

Common diversity
indices are special cases of
Rényi diversity
H.a = 1/(1-a) log sum(p^a)
where a is a scale parameter, and Hill (1975) suggested to use so-called “Hill numbers” defined as N.a = exp(H.a). Some Hill numbers are the number of species with a = 0, exp(H') or the exponent of Shannon diversity with a = 1, inverse Simpson with a = 2 and 1/max(p) with a = Inf. According to the theory of diversity ordering, one community can be regarded as more diverse than another only if its Rényi diversities are all higher (Tóthmérész 1995).
The plot
method for renyi
uses lattice graphics,
and displays the diversity values against each scale in separate panel
for each site together with minimum, maximum and median values in the
complete data.
Function renyiaccum
is similar to specaccum
but
finds Rényi or Hill diversities at given scales
for random permutations of accumulated sites. Its plot
function uses lattice function xyplot
to display the accumulation curves for each value of scales
in a separate panel. In addition, it has a persp
method to
plot the diversity surface against scale and number and
sites. Similar dynamic graphics can be made with
rgl.renyiaccum
in vegan3d package.
Function renyi
returns a data frame of selected
indices. Function renyiaccum
with argument raw = FALSE
returns a three-dimensional array, where the first dimension are the
accumulated sites, second dimension are the diversity scales, and
third dimension are the summary statistics mean
, stdev
,
min
, max
, Qnt 0.025
and Qnt 0.975
. With
argument raw = TRUE
the statistics on the third dimension are
replaced with individual permutation results.
