1. Diversity of whale blow and seawater samples from minimum entropy decomposition (MED) node groupings (17), including observed number of MEDs, a relative estimate of species richness between samples (a), and Simpson’s index (19), a relative estimate of diversity and evenness (b).
Diversity of whale blow and seawater samples from minimum entropy decomposition (MED) node groupings (17), including observed number of MEDs, a relative estimate of species richness between samples (a), and Simpson’s index (19), a relative estimate of diversity and evenness (b). Data from replicate collections are shown for the Vancouver Island blow and seawater samples with multiple symbols per sample name.
