Prospects for survival in the Southern Ocean: vulnerability of benthic species to temperature change (2005, background): “This is called taxonomic distinctness, and several interesting diversity indices have been developed recently that include taxonomic distinctness (Webb 2000, Warwick & Clarke 2001).”
Changes in four complementary facets of fish diversity in a tropical coastal lagoon after 18 years: a functional interpretation (2005, methodology): “When data are only presence/absence of species, Δ* converges to the average specific taxonomic distinctness (Δ+) (Clarke & Warwick 1998, Warwick & Clarke 2001) with the formula: (3) where S is the species richness and Δij is the ‘distinctness weight’ given to the path length linking species i and j…”
An easy-to-use index of ecological integrity for prioritizing freshwater sites and for assessing habitat quality (2009, background): “It is based on the intuitive principle that an assemblage of distantly related species is more diverse than an assemblage of closely related species (Warwick and Clarke 2001).”
Spatial variation in species diversity and composition of flea assemblages in small mammalian hosts: geographical distance or faunal similarity? (2005, background): “The latter measure is based on the average taxonomic distances between species in an assemblage (Clarke & Warwick, 1998, 1999, 2001 Warwick & Clarke, 2001), and provides a measure of the composition, and not the size, of an assemblage.”
Long-term and spillover effects of a marine protected area on an exploited fish community (2009, methodology): “We also calculated the diversity indices Δ* and Δ+ based on taxonomic distinctness (Warwick & Clarke 2001).”
Average functional distinctness as a measure of the composition of assemblages (2008, background): “PD (and by implication FD) is highly dependent on the number of species in samples (Warwick and Clarke, 2001).”
Benthic response to chronic natural physical disturbance by glacial sedimentation in an Arctic fjord (2005, background): “Surprisingly, taxonomic distinctness did not follow that trend; it was highest in the glacial bay and its variance was lowest there, i.e. species were evenly distributed across the hierarchical taxonomic tree (Warwick & Clarke 2001).”
Seascape biodiversity patterns along the Mediterranean and the Black Sea: lessons from the biogeography of benthic polychaetes (2002, methodology): “…a simulation distribution (funnel) from random subsets of species from the regional polychaete inventory, both AvTD and VarTD statistics, calculated from the species lists of the areas considered, can be tested for departure from expectation (Clarke & Warwick 2001, Warwick & Clarke 2001).”
Host introductions and the geography of parasite taxonomic diversity (2003, methodology): “…the average taxonomic distinctness; in these situations complementary information can be obtained by examining the variance in taxonomic distinctness (see Clarke & Warwick, 2001 or Warwick & Clarke, 2001): Kþ ¼ PP i6¼j xij - 2 s s 1ð Þ ; where x is simply the average taxonomic distinctness, or Dþ.”
Changes in wild fish assemblages after the establishment of a fish farming zone in an oligotrophic marine ecosystem (2004, background): “As opposed to ‘standard’ diversity indices which look into whether individuals belong to the same species, lack explicit links to functional diversity (Warwick and Clarke, 1995) and are largely effort dependent (Clarke and Warwick, 1999), biodiversity indices measure the degree to which species are ”
