Metrics of Biodiversity

[DeCoredge]

Very good video that breaks down the concept of SADs and how it effects the theory of metrics of Biodiversity and what it means in the concepts of the research.
-The abundance value of a species within a probability mass function can be manipulated by both genetic and environmental factors of an environment, which the presenter supports while explaining the probability mass function.

• The abundance value affects the cumulative density function and the probability mass function and are presented empirically. Is there a reason why it's displayed empirically rather than any other form?
• The end was very informative showing how the concepts of eugenics have influenced how statistics is approached. Have any efforts been made to stir away from utilizing eugenics as a foundation towards how to implement statistics?
