Gage of the Scottish Association for Marine Science, Oban, Scotland.The program will calculate automatically, using only the selected samples and the current program options.

When the calculation is finished, a. Graph and results spreadsheet will pop-up (according to the user options) showing the results of the calculation. There are four types of calculation to be performed, as noted below: 1) Alpha: Defined by Whittaker as local diversity, used here for calculations based on single samples, also known as univariate diversity measures. A) Abundance Plot: K-Dominance >Rank b) Abundance Model: Log-Series >Broken Stick c) Rarefaction d) Diversity Indices: Shannon >Alpha >Caswell >Berger-Parker >Simpson >Hill >Margalef >McIntosh 2) Beta: SHE Analysis >Species Richness >Species Distribution 3) Multivariate: Simultaneous analysis of more than one independent variable. Used here for ordination and clustering techniques. These are powerful descriptive methods which can suggest correlations between biodiversity patterns and potential causes but cannot resolve cause and effect. In particular, the user is warned that is uncomfortably easy to fall into circular reasoning (groups defined by the method are justified as 'real' because the method has defined them).
