Hills N2 is a measure of species diversity, commonly referred to as
"effective" diversity. If computed on the rows (samples) then the
"effective" number of species in each row is returned, whereas, if
computed on the columns (species) then the "effective" number of
occurences of each species in the data set is returned.
Usage
n2(x, ...)
# S3 method for default
n2(x, which = c("species", "sites"), ...)
Value
A numeric vector of N2 values.
Arguments
x
matrix or data frame of species data
which
character; compute N2 on the rows ("sites") or the
columns ("species") of x
