Assessing the performance of nonparametric estimators of species richness in meadows

2010-05-01

Abstract excerpt

To accurately measure the number of species in a biological community, a complete inventory should be performed, which is generally unfeasible; hopefully, estimators of species richness can help. Our main objectives were (i) to assess the performance of nonparametric estimators of plant species richness with real data from a small set of meadows located in the Basque campiña (northern Spain), and (ii) to apply the...
