Use of cover data to model species abundance distributions through continuous probability functions

Abstract Species abundance distribution (SAD) models describe the abundances of the species within ecological communities. SAD modelling has been developed using frequency distributions that require the use of count data (number of individuals). However, many organisms, such as most plants, cannot b...
