recluster: Ordination Methods for the Analysis of Beta-Diversity Indices
The analysis of different aspects of biodiversity requires specific algorithms.
For example, in regionalisation analyses, the high frequency of ties and zero values in
dissimilarity matrices produced by Beta-diversity turnover produces hierarchical
cluster dendrograms whose topology and bootstrap supports are affected by the order of
rows in the original matrix. Moreover, visualisation of biogeographical regionalisation
can be facilitated by a combination of hierarchical clustering and multi-dimensional
scaling. The recluster package provides robust techniques to visualise and analyse
pattern of biodiversity and to improve occurrence data for cryptic taxa.
Other functions related to recluster (e.g. the biodecrypt family) are currently
available in GitHub at <https://github.com/leondap/recluster>.
