Taxonomic and functional homogenization of an endemic desert fish fauna (2012, methodology): “Species presence/absence data were used to calculate taxonomic compositional similarity (CS) among watersheds across time periods based on the bsim index (Lennon et al., 2001).”
Spatial mismatch and congruence between taxonomic, phylogenetic and functional diversity: the need for integrative conservation strategies in a changing world. (2010, background): “Taxonomic diversity can intrinsically inﬂuence the functional and phylogenetic turnover (Harrison et al. 1992; Lennon et al. 2001).”
BAT – Biodiversity Assessment Tools, an R package for the measurement and estimation of alpha and beta taxon, phylogenetic and functional diversity (2015, background): “Two distinct processes shape communities and their differences: species replacement and species loss (or gain) (Williams, de Klerk & Crowe 1999; Lennon et al. 2001).”
Patterns of beta diversity in Europe: the role of climate, land cover and distance across scales (2012, background): “Similar observations have been reported in previous studies conducted on much smaller extents and grains of resolution than investigated here (Harte et al., 1999; Lennon et al., 2001; Arita & Rodrı́guez, 2002; Mac Nally et al., 2004; Steinitz et al., 2006).”
Navigating the multiple meanings of β diversity: a roadmap for the practicing ecologist. (2011, background): “This issue has led to various attempts to remove the effect of differences in a from measures of b diversity (Lennon et al. 2001).”
Rectangular and hexagonal grids used for observation, experiment and simulation in ecology (2007, methodology): “Hierarchical grids here is increasing awareness that biological spatial patterns re dependent on the spatial resolution at which they are bserved (Kotliar and Wiens, 1990; Wu and Loucks, 1995; auchald, 1999; Lennon et al., 2001).”
A diversity of beta diversities: straightening up a concept gone awry. Part 2. Quantifying beta diversity and related phenomena (2010, background): “Most of these studies referred to the beta-sim measure of Lennon et al. (2001), but this is actually the mean 1 Ssim value between a focal sampling unit and each of its neighbours in a specified geographical window.”
Are there latitudinal gradients in species turnover (2003, background): “This is a ‘broad-sense’ measure of turnover (as are βc, β−1, βj, βt, βME and βgl) in that it implicitly incorporates differences in composition attributable to diversity gradients, but ignores the relative magnitude of species gains and species losses between sample units (Lennon et al., 2001; Kolef”
Indicators for Sea-floor Integrity under the European Marine Strategy Framework Directive (2012, background): “Other indicators explore the species-area relationship and measure the turnover related to species accumulation with area (Harte et al., 1999; Lennon et al., 2001; Ricotta et al., 2002).”
Beta diversity of angiosperms in temperate floras of eastern Asia and eastern North America (2004, background): “In many studies, beta diversity decreases at coarser scales, as habitat heterogeneity is increasingly included within sample areas rather than partitioned between them (e.g. Lennon et al. 2001 ).”
Warming leads to higher species turnover in a coastal ecosystem (2010, methodology): “This measure was originally proposed by G.E. Simpson and reformulated by Lennon et al. (2001) as bSim ¼ minðb; cÞ minðb; cÞ þ a ; where a is the number of species present in both samples, whereas b and c are the numbers of species occurring only in either one or the other sample. bSim can range…”
betapart: an R package for the study of beta diversity (2012, methodology): “In contrast, the Simpson index of dissimilarity (Simpson 1943; Lennon et al. 2001) accounts only for turnover (species replacement), and building on this, Baselga (2010, 2012) proposed a method for partitioning total dissimilarity *Correspondence author.”
Guild structure, foraging space use, and distribution in a community of insectivorous bats in the Negev Desert (2004, methodology): “Furthermore, a turnover index was used to explore similarity and dissimilarity between sites within site-type and between pairs of site-types (Janson & Vegelius, 1981), and followed the Lennon et al. (2001) definitions of the components of the turnover.”
Species Turnover along Abiotic and Biotic Gradients: Patterns in Space Equal Patterns in Time? (2010, background): “Second, beta diversity can be measured as variation in community composition across space “horizontally,” with the focus on variability in species composition among disjointed, nonoverlapping sites (Harrison et al. 1992, Lennon et al. 2001, Soininen et al. 2007b).”
