An Index for Measuring Functional Diversity in Plant Communities Based on Neural Network Theory
Functional diversity in plant communities is a key driver of ecosystem processes. The effective methods for measuring functional diversity are important in ecological studies. A new method based on neural network, self-organizing feature map (SOFM index), was put forward and described. A case applic...
