Feb 9, 2021 · In this paper we explain coverage and Hill diversity, provide guidelines for how to use them together to measure species diversity, and demonstrate their use with examples from our own data. We show why researchers will obtain more robust results when they estimate the Hill diversity of equal-coverage samples, rather than using other methods ...

How do we measure species diversity within a habitat? How do we compare diversity across different types of habitats containing very different numbers and types of organisms? There are many mathematical models that have been developed to quantify species diversity in different habitats.
Species diversity consists of species richness, the number of species, and species evenness, the relative abundance of species. While only 1.5 million species have been described, there are estimated …
Nevertheless species diversity is a large part of the focus of biodiversity at the local and regional scale, and we will concentrate here on how to measure species diversity.

May 11, 2000 · The most commonly considered facet of biodiversity is species richness — the number of species in a site, habitat or clade. Species are an obvious choice of unit when trying to measure...
