AnneChao/Evenness: Evenness

This release includes four files:

(1) Alpine data(relative abundance data): the relative abundances of the 45 Alpine species for three successional stages; see Figure 1.

(2) Alpine phylo_tree: the phylogenetic tree of the 45 Alpine species; see Figure 1. This tree was taken from Ricotta et al. (2015, Appendix A).

(3) Evenness.R: Main code for computing the profiles of six classess of evenness measures (listed in Table 1 with plots in Figure 2) and for computing the contribution of each species/node to Jaccard-type taxonomic and phylogenetic dissimilarity measures (see Figures 3 and 4). The corresponding contribution to Sorensen-type taxonomic and phylogenetic dissimilarity measures are shown in Appendix S3.

(4) Lorenz.R: R code for computing and plotting the Lorenz curves of assemblages; see Appendix S4 for examples.
