Calculates summary statistics of a metacommunity
Preprocess.MC(Nsi, Wi)A matrix containing abundance data, species in line, communities in column.
Normalized community weights (sum to 1).
An object of class MetaCommunity. It is a list:
A matrix containing abundance data, species in line, communities in column
The number of species
The number of communities
Normalized community weights (sum to 1)
The total number of individuals
A vector containing the number of individuals of each community
A vector containing the number of individuals of each species
A matrix whose columns are the probability vectors of communities (each of them sums to 1)
A vector containing the probability vector of the metacommunity
The sample coverage of the metacommunity
A vector containing the sample coverages of each community
This is an internal function. It is used by MetaCommunity for real data and DivEst for simulations.
