ambiR: Calculate AZTI’s Marine Biotic Index
Calculate AZTI’s Marine Biotic Index - AMBI. The included list of benthic fauna species according to their sensitivity to pollution. Matching species in sample data to the list allows the calculation of fractions of individuals in the different sensitivity categories and thereafter the AMBI index. The Shannon Diversity Index H' and the Danish benthic fauna quality index DKI (Dansk Kvalitetsindeks) can also be calculated, as well as the multivariate M-AMBI index.
