Calculate diversity parameters for diatoms using the vegan package
Description
The input for these functions is the resulting dataframe obtained from the diat_loadData() function, to calculate diversity data using the vegan package Sample data in the examples is taken from:
Nicolosi Gelis, María Mercedes; Cochero, Joaquín; Donadelli, Jorge; Gómez, Nora. 2020. "Exploring the use of nuclear alterations, motility and ecological guilds in epipelic diatoms as biomonitoring tools for water quality improvement in urban impacted lowland streams". Ecological Indicators, 110, 105951. https://doi:10.1016/j.ecolind.2019.105951
Diversity index (Shannons H') is calculated using the vegan package, following:
Shannon, C. E., and Weaver, W. (1949). ‘The Mathematical Theory of Communication.’ (University of Illinios Press: Urbana, IL, USA.)
