RICHEST ‐ a web server for richness estimation in biological data

Richness is defined as the number of distinct species or classes in a sample or population. Although richness estimation is an important practice, it requires mathematical and computational methods that are challenging to understand and implement. We have developed a web server, RICHness ESTimator (...

description Richness is defined as the number of distinct species or classes in a sample or population. Although richness estimation is an important practice, it requires mathematical and computational methods that are challenging to understand and implement. We have developed a web server, RICHness ESTimator (RICHEST), which implements three non-parametric statistical methods for richness estimation. Its user-friendly web interface allows users to analyze and compare their data conveniently over the web. AVAILABILITY: A web server hosting RICHEST is accessible at http://richest.cgb.indiana.edu/cgi-bin/index.cgi and the software is freely available for local installations.
