SPECIES DIVERSITY PATTERNS DERIVED FROM SPECIES–AREA MODELS (2002, methodology): “The latter is traditionally used to measure income inequality or inequality in plant sizes (Damgaard and Weiner 2000); it was calculated using the formula given by Johnson et al. (1994); g ranges from 0 to 1 and represents chang- S Regular pattern 0.75 I FIG.”
Characterizing forest structural types and shelterwood dynamics from Lorenz-based indicators predicted by airborne laser scanning (2013, methodology): “1 in Damgaard and Weiner (2000)).”
Comparison of airborne laser scanning methods for estimating forest structure indicators based on Lorenz curves (2014, methodology): “A fourth indicator of Lorenz asymmetry (LA) was therefore computed, using the concept developed for forestry by Valbuena et al. (2013a) as modified version of the original indicator designed by Damgaard and Weiner (2000).”
Temporal dynamics of social hierarchy formation and maintenance in male mice (2016, methodology): “Since the Gini coefficient does not detail whether more dominant or more subordinate individuals are responsible for any inequity, we also calculated the Lorenz asymmetry coefficient, LA (Damgaard & Weiner, 2000).”
Diversity and equitability ordering profiles applied to study forest structure (2012, methodology): “However, it has been noted that the same values of GC can be obtained by very different Lorenz curves, and consequently a Lorenz asymmetry coefficient (S) was also developed (Damgaard and Weiner, 2000).”
Comparative transitive and temporal orderliness in dominance networks (2013, positive): “As a supplement to the Gini coefficient, Damgaard and Weiner (2000), therefore, proposed also assessing the Lorenz asymmetry coefficient, whose value is <1 if the bulge of the curve lies below an imaginary line of slope –1, and >1 if the bulge lies above the imaginary line of slope –1.”
Bionomics and distribution of the stag beetle, Lucanus cervus (L.) across Europe * (2011, methodology): “TheGini and Lorenz asymmetry coefficients (Damgaard & Weiner, 2000) were calculated, as the former provides a measure of the size variability in populations, while the latter indicates which size classes (e.g. the larger or smaller individuals) contribute most to the total amount of inequality in…”
COMPETITION, PREDATION, AND DENSITY-DEPENDENT MORTALITY IN DEMERSAL MARINE FISHES (2005, background): “…expressed as a proportion of the mean, and (2) the Gini coefficient (G), which is a measure of the inequality in a size distribution, literally the mean of the difference between every possible pair of individuals divided by the mean size, which ranges from 0 to 1 (Damgaard and Weiner 2000).”
