Bayesian Nonparametric Estimation of the Probability of Discovering New Species (2007, background): “With reference to the problem of estimating the number of unobserved species, nonparametric approaches include those of Chao & Lee (1992), Shen et al. (2003) and Chao & Bunge (2002).”
ESTIMATION OF SPECIES RICHNESS: MIXTURE MODELS, THE ROLE OF RARE SPECIES, AND INFERENTIAL CHALLENGES (2005, background): “…samples to two or three times their actual size, without attempting to find a true asymptote (Colwell et al. 2004, Mao et al., in press; see also Shen et al. 2003, for a different approach; in fact, it is not at all clear that a true asymptote even exists, for some taxa in some habitats, as…”
Measuring and Estimating Species Richness, Species Diversity, and Biotic Similarity from Sampling Data (2013, unknown): “Under a simple multinomial model, Shen et al. (2003) derived the following useful predictor with an asymptotic variance: ~S indðnþm Þ ¼ Sobs þ f̂ 0 1 1 f1 nf̂ 0 !m 24 3 5 ESobs þ f̂ 0 1 exp m n f1 f̂ 0 !"”
Coverage-based rarefaction and extrapolation: standardizing samples by completeness rather than size. (2012, methodology): “5 and the extrapolation (prediction) curve proposed in Shen et al. (2003) to yield a single smooth curve meeting at the reference sample.”
Deciphering Diversity Indices for a Better Understanding of Microbial Communities. (2017, background): “Accurate assessment of species richness is useful for the effective analysis of biological communities [27].”
Models and estimators linking individual-based and sample-based rarefaction, extrapolation and comparison of assemblages (2012, methodology): “For the first time, we have linked these well-known interpolation approaches with recent sampling-theoretic extrapolation approaches, under both the multinomial model (Shen et al. 2003) and the Poisson model (Chao and Shen 2004), as well as to methods for predicting the number of additional individu”
Soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merrill] rhizobial diversity in Brazilian oxisols under various soil, cropping, and inoculation managements (2007, methodology): “Considering the equation proposed by Shen et al. (2003) for estimating new species, a further survey with 1,000 individuals might detect 36 and 18 new genotypes in the soils at sites 2 and 4, respectively, and a maximum of five new genotypes at the other sites (Table 4). In addition, in most areas”
Ground spider assemblages as indicators for habitat structure in inland sand ecosystems (2010, methodology): “Explanation of habitat type categories: Calluna heath = Genisto-Callunetum, dry grassland = Spergulo-Corynephoretum (including patches of Agrostietum coarctatae), forested sites = surrounding habitats such as Betulo-Quercetum roboris or Pinus sylvestris-forests, Juniperus heath = Dicrano scoparii-Ju”
