interclustdist

Calculates the distance between pairs of cluster centroids, given a distance matrix and a cluster vector.

A set of functions to: (1) perform fuzzy clustering of vegetation data (De Caceres et al, 2010) <doi:10.1111/j.1654-1103.2010.01211.x>; (2) to assess ecological community similarity on the basis of structure and composition (De Caceres et al, 2013) <doi:10.1111/2041-210X.12116>.
