Hello - a colleague and I would appreciate feedback on the question below. Please reply directly to: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Thank you very much! We are interested in using an index to measure relative interaction intensity. Both Armas C. et al. (2004) (RII) and Oksanen L. (2006) (CRCI=arc sin (RNE)) have proposed indices that apparently perform better than RCI, RNE, and lnRR. Has anyone had experience using either of these or have any opinion about one over the other? Our experimental design is a complete random design using an additive design to compare control vs. competition treatment plots. Also, since it is at the community level, should we assume we should randomly pair up replicate control and treatment plots to calculate index values, so we can then run statistics?
