Species assemblages and indicator species:the need for a flexible asymmetrical approach
Marc Dufrêne,Pierre Legendre +1 more
TL;DR: A new and simple method to find indicator species and species assemblages characterizing groups of sites, and a new way to present species-site tables, accounting for the hierarchical relationships among species, is proposed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ecologically meaningful transformations for ordination of species data
TL;DR: Transitions are proposed for species data tables which allow ecologists to use ordination methods such as PCA and RDA for the analysis of community data, while circumventing the problems associated with the Euclidean distance, and avoiding CA and CCA which present problems of their own in some cases.
Journal ArticleDOI
Partialling out the spatial component of ecological variation
TL;DR: In this paper, a method is proposed to partition the variation of species abundance data into independent components: pure spatial, pure environmental, spatial component of environmental influence, and undetermined.
Journal ArticleDOI
Spatial Autocorrelation: Trouble or New Paradigm?
TL;DR: The paper discusses first how autocorrelation in ecological variables can be described and measured, and ways are presented of explicitly introducing spatial structures into ecological models, and two approaches are proposed.
