Distance-Based Functional Diversity Measures and Their Decomposition: A Framework Based on Hill Numbers

Hill numbers (or the “effective number of species”) are increasingly used to characterize species diversity of an assemblage. This work extends Hill numbers to incorporate species pairwise functional distances calculated from species traits. We derive a parametric class of functional Hill numbers, w...
