Are there habitats that contribute best to plant species diversity in coastal dunes? (2009, methodology): “Rarefaction curves (Sanders 1968) are now a widely used and accepted method for estimating standardized species richness (Gotelli and Colwell 2001; Koellner et al. 2004; Williams et al. 2007; Chiarucci et al. 2007).”
Remotely sensed spectral heterogeneity as a proxy of species diversity: Recent advances and open challenges (2010, background): “For example, rarefaction is a robust statistical procedure allowing the quantification of the number of species or individuals given a certain sampling effort in terms of the number of sampling units or the area investigated (e.g. Gotelli and Colwell, 2001; Koellner et al., 2004).”
Quantifying plant species diversity in a Natura 2000 network: Old ideas and new proposals (2008, methodology): “As a possible reference, the design adopted by the Swiss biodiversity monitoring program (Koellner et al., 2004; Bühler, 2006) uses a density of points that is only 1/25 of that here adopted.”
Endophytic fungal communities in woody perennials of three tropical forest types of the Western Ghats, southern India (2011, methodology): “Rarefaction curve, diversity estimates and measures of similarity Rarefaction curve was used to estimate the number of species in a given sub-sample of a forest (Koellner et al. 2004).”
