the species discovery curve (also known as a species accumulation curve or collector's curve) is a graph recording the cumulative number of species of...

identical to the species discovery curve. Ecologists have proposed a wide range of factors determining the slope and elevation of the species–area relationship...

The species discovery curve can also be used. This curve relates the number of species found in an area as a function of the time. These curves can also...

bring samples of different sizes to a common footing. Species discovery curves and the number of species only represented by one or a few individuals can be...
